Sounds like you need a new line and bulb to me.I had same problem and put new line with bulb and still did it.It ended up that the line was sucking air where it goes into tank(plastic tank).Just my thoughts.

mine was doing the same thing i changed my bulb and line still did it then i changed my pick up valve. it still did not work. so i drained my tank and was going to get a new tank when i found a piece o silacone in my tank that came frome my fuel gage on top. and that was the proublem. we cleaned the tank let it dry and it has worked fine since. so maybe if nothing else works try checking your tank to see if it has anything in it. what happen is it would start idle then when i would take off it would die and i would have to wait and pump my bulb and try again. the silacone would cloug the line and kill the motor, then after it stoped it would fall back in the tank. it took me two mounths of doing diffrent things till i found out what it was. hope this will help

I believe that your motor has carbs and not EFI. Correct me if I'm wrong. But if it does have carbs, sometimes junk will get in the bowl and block the jets. When you pump the bulb it will force the fuel in, but not if the junk settles. You might also check to see if you have a check valve in your tank, some tanks have them some do not. Might not be sealing
and letting the fuel back in the tank. Good luck..
Check the fuel filter and replace it, BPS has one that is around 10$. That should help you some and it could be the main problem.
Hey guys thanks for the help. I'm going to try everything that you'll have said on Saturday and hopefully it will fix the problem.
