I did the primer bulb test and it took no time at all to start the 1872. I put the primer in front of the fuel pump as a means of testing the pump and like I said it started with no problem. As pointed out by Clint a mechanical fuel pump would probably fix the problem but also as pointed out an electric would also do the trick and has been proven as a good reliable upgrade. I'm thinking I'm going to go electrical the mechanical s seem to be a week link in the kohler engine as I already experienced in my 1811. All though I received great advise on pumps I'm going to go this route its in stock and close by.
