Ok guys, did what you said and hooked up a clear line from the primer bulb to the engine and hooked up a vacuum gauge. The vacuum gauge read about 2hg at idle and about 3 to 3.2 hg at full throttle. The gauge never ran any higher than 3.2hg and generally stayed right around 2.8 to 3hg throughout the whole rpm range and slowly increased up to it's max reading of 3.2hg at wot.

Now for the other part. The clear fuel line showed MANY bubbles coming from before the primer bulb and going to the motor. Sometimes it was just a constant stream of bubbles and it made you wonder how the engine was even staying running. Other times it would stay solid fuel for a while with very small bubbles in it once in a while. It didn't really seam to change with rpm as to when there were more or less bubbles in the line. When the bulb was pumped whjen the engine was sputtering in the bad rpm range it really didn't seem to affect the motor at all, but the motor was stuttering more when there was more air in the line.

So what exactly does this mean and how bad is it to run the motor in this condition. Is it a stop running it completely or the motor will blow up, or more of a try and get it fixed as fast as possible, but don't be deathly afraid to run it??? I have a new fuel pickup tube for the tank ordered and already replaced every other line and fuel clamp from the gas tank to the motor. I will also try to bypass the fuel tank selector switch after i get the new pickup in the tank to see if anything works. Any other ideas? Thanks again for the help,
