sounds like you have a pin hole leak in the line. Fuel lines are not
expensive and it's the easyest fix (unless of course you have the vent on
the tank closed ). Doc

What would cause my primer ball on my outboard to go soft after about a
min. And then my motor starts to die because a lack of fuel? I do see
some fuel on the lines, could this cause my motor to lean out? It will
take off and run after a few sputters. Oh the motor is a 1997 johnson
venom 200 hp.
