maybe you have your idle to low. Also open a litle bit more the fuel needle. If you still have roplems it means that even your silicone tubes have leak or your fuel tank looses pressure. Then you should buy a racing fuel tank without pump on it for better air compression into the tank. In that case tap the exaust with your finger ant pull the starter 2-3 times in does the same work as the pumb. For further help pm me.

I agree. Tanks with primers are known for this trouble. Get a primerless tank.

Hi,

Sounds like a leaking fuel tank at the pump thing.

Regards

Sounds like your LSN is set way too lean. I'd recheck your needle settings and go from there.
