The first guy to use Doug's, then new, 18' Go-Devil in our marsh also worked at a boat shop and installed a second bulb up near the tank in the bow to apparently good effect.

I may do that as well rather than in the rear near and before the external fuel pump. I noticed a splice in the line in that area and assumed there may have been a primer bulb there at one time.

We have sleet falling here this morning! We'll, the local weather people are calling it graupel.

Sounds like a different setup, but I'm just saying that I don't think the additional bulb impeded normal flow.

Never heard of the PB Blaster version, but had good luck with Boshield's(?) waxy salt blocker during my Capt. Rick phase.

Looks good! We've long used Mercury's Corrosion Guard product for an anti-corrosion waterproof coating on all sorts of outboard parts or other stuff that gets a lot of water, not sure if you've tried that one in past.
