    1977 playcraft p24 pontoon

    ok well everything was going good but then I noticed the motor change it tone so we headed to the shore. It was a good thing I did as the motor started to go back to the same thing it did before and the primer ball would stay squeezed and not reflate until I disconnected the fuel line from the...
