Start by noticing important clues as to the cause:
If you squeeze the bulb and smell gas, you almost certainly have a cracked, cut or nicked fuel hose between the bulb and the motor, or the fuel line is not securely connected to the motor. [links]
If your motor has both an in-motor gas tank and an external tank, there will be a switch to choose which tank the motor is using (it’s usually on the front of the motor). Make sure it’s set to the correct one! It can easily get bumped to the wrong position when the motor is removed or put back on the dinghy, or when the motor is tilted up and down.
3. another thing to check is the anti-syphon valve on the fuel tank. They are WELL KNOWN to fail and cause the same kind of symptoms you have found. I personally would just take it out and replace it with a straight thru barb as its really not serving a useful purpose on an outboard powered boat.
I then tried starting her again. She turned over fine, idled for about 5 seconds, then died. Same 3 beeps. No error codes. Called some buddies. Tried starting her again, this time she cranked up but then died almost immediately. My buddy with me remarked that it's acting like it's running out of fuel. This was also confusing since I was 100000 percent sure I had fuel in the tank (22 gallons to be specific).
A primer bulb that sucks flat is a sign of fuel not getting thru the lines to the bulb. Nothing to do with the engine. The fact that the bulb is sucking flat is indeed a sign that the electronic fuel pump is doing its job perfectly. It just cant suck fuel thru because there is none getting to the bulb. [links]
Hi all, I had something kind of strange happen to me today. DF200SS 4 stroke.
But I will point out that I did have a similar problem with the bulb on my DF25A within a year of getting the motor. After some troubleshooting, I replaced the bulb and cut the old one open. What I found was that there is a plastic check valve at each end of the bulb, same diameter as the hose fitting. One of the valves had come loose and was floating around in the bulb. After the fact, I realized that I could feel the loose valve through the rubber if I squeezed the bulb flat. With that experience, I would suggest you try the same: pinch the bulb flat between your fingers and see if you can feel something inside the bulb. If you do, replace the bulb! I was skeptical that such a failure could occur with a new motor, but in my case it did. more
Just a really puzzling case.

Hello Reza, https://www.crowleymarine.com/parts/442207.cfm That is the fuel pump that you need for your model Thank you,
The engine would suck the gas bulb dry and would slow the engine down to an idle RPM. I replaced all the gas lines and things that pertained to the fuel system from the gas tank to the fuel pump. It turned out to be a defective primer bulb that I purchased brand new. PAM U Industries makes these defective bulbs. Make sure that you stay away from them!! They will not give a replacement! JUNK! This caused me allot of grief! [links]
Started with replacing impeller and LUO. Rebuilt all carbs which had fuel that was like jelly in the bowl and float needle chamber. Reinstalled carbs replaced all 6 plugs fired up engine and adjusted idle mixture screws to achieve my RPM in fwd gear at idle.
I have a 2014 Yamaha F300XCA. Need a fuel primer bulb and also need to know the size of the tubing for that bulb. Thanks more
