[QUOTE="skallagrime, post: 12136817, member: 84021"]On my 3406e I dont get rpms to read till its going. hard primer is good I know many beleive ether is the devil, but give it a few small squirts and see what happens? Rpm may raise enough to get it some actual fuel/a reading. A weak fuel pump should have showed slow deterioration. A possibility, it can happen, not common but not unheard of, pop primer off and check that the checkvalve isnt backwards, it can happen. Granted all this is fuel related. You say hand pump is hard, is that the only reason youre leaning to electrical?
