That fuel pump bulb is important with 2 stroke engines?
I'm ready to throw my 2 stroke blower out. If I just need a bulb, I'll let it live a little longer.
It takes too many pulls to get it started.
It primes the carburetor to a degree. But there's a very basic fuel pump built into the carburetor also. It tends to stiffen with age... makes it hard to crank. However, once cranked, the RPMs are high enough to overcome the degradation and engines will run just fine. Cranking is the bear...
You can buy a rebuild kit, or just grab a new carb.
