During this past cold spell the fuel gelled up in my 5203. Filled the tank to the top with new fuel, added fuel treatment, installed a new filter and it is 45* here today. I have been trying to bleed it as per the manual, and haven't had much luck. I finally got fuel to flow properly out the bleed screw in the filter housing (after about 100 or more pumps of the primer), but haven't been able to get any measurable amount to come out of the bleed screw on the injector pump. After 200-250 pumps I've gotten maybe a table spoon of fuel to come out of the injector pump screw. I'm wondering if maybe the primer pump is shot? Any other ways to go about it? Any thoughts or advice would be great, thanks in advance.
