[QUOTE="megalomaniac, post: 5537691, member: 2805"] Thanks all! So turns out it didn't run out of gas, there was a little in the tank when I added 5g today. Bulb still wouldn't pump up and was sucking air back from the motor into the bulb, so looks like the 1 way ball valve is gunked up and failed. Got my buddy to bring over his portable tank and fuel line and the motor started right up and we let it run for 30 min or so while doing a few odds and ends. Pulled the prop off the trolling motor to look for line, and this gasket thing is shot. [USER=5695]@Spurhunter[/USER] would this cause decreased trolling speed? I'm thinking not, but looks like I will need a replacement regardless. [/QUOTE]
