    Gravity feed Mercs usually fed fuel into the bottom of the carb. The Mark 20 goes in the top. This has probably created a big loop or dip in the fuel line. I don’t know what the phenomenon is called but sometimes liquids will have a very hard time going down hill, then up hill, to the end of the run, even if the end of the run is lower than the gas tank.

    Long live American manufacturing!
