Went to prime my ARQ Ruby engine and f/pump felt like it was sucking air ? (Having just taken out a second mortgage to buy a gallon of fuel I knew the tank was part filled)
Seemed to make a " schlerping" sound while priming, pulled it apart and no obvious issue, such as hole in diaphragm, checked and cleaned 'flap valves', reassembled and it drew fuel.
stopped for tea, about 1 1/2 hours, went to start and no fuel being drawn either from tank, or from alternate gallon can I re routed the IN pipe too, any thoughts.
