    200XRI spraying fuel while priming with the bulb

    Hello. I will post serial# tomorrow. I just purchased a 1995 Mercury 200 XRI. When using the primer bulb had sprays from the top of the engine from where the oil tank would set. I appears to be coming out of a fitting of some sort that has a small hole in it. As long as you pump the bulb it will spray out but it doesn't spray while the engine is running. This is my first e.f.i. what could possibly be going on here. Thanks
