    Got the new impeller in, looks like it’s pumping water fine. New issue though, basically it seems to run very lean for a few seconds then shuts off. It looks like a fuel delivery issue to me. I pulled the glass bowl and turned the fuel valve on, I get very slow drips, I’m assuming the fuel should flow in quickly leading me to believe the carb is not filling and that the engine is basically sucking what little fuel there is up until it’s gone. Any thoughts?
