Jim, Charlie, Dave & List,
I will remove the filters later but I wanted to get he back in the driveway
so I tried to start her up as is. after 15 minutes she fired up fine, then
crapped out fuel comes in & out of pump fine I can see it and I made videos
see below. So it may not be a vacuum now. I thought the plugs were fouled
because she wouldn't fire so I cleaned them she started and I got her back
in the drive way and then she crapped out. All videos below. Is there a way
to get a glass or clear fuel line on her just so I can see fuel? I am
starting to think it s something else, I need to learn more about tune ups
and have several Sprite books. Which book should get me through novice
tuneups? She does not sound good unless I let her sit 15 minutes then she
fires up great runs great and then 5 or 10 minutes later she craps out, but
I see she is getting fuel now.
Charlie look at my pump and let me know what you think of vertical. Dave I
even ran without the cap no swoosh, BTW I'm back to my old loose cap.
Check videos they are all self explanatory and in order.
1, Pinky was sucking air and not getting fuel. After 15 minute wait she
fires up fine.

2, Pinky runs fine 5 minutes later sounds like loosing fuel but fuel visible
then stops and can't fire up again. Cleaned plugs with elect cleaner even
though they looked fine.

3, Pinky fires up after cleaning plugs but cautious of her crapping out
again.

4, Pinky craps out again even though she has fuel coming in and clean plugs
. It must be something else.
