Cleaned and rebuilt carb. Still stay running unless I keep hitting the primer bulb to keep it running. Bad primer bulb?

Sounds like its starving for fuel. Check and make sure you reinstalled the carb to air cleaner gasket. Sometimes if you add a second gasket it will solve the problem. Good luck!

Have the carb ultrasonically clean and rebuilt with a new needle/seat kit.
