Thanks Northeaster for the insurance comment.
My pump lever is fairly accessible but it doesn't seem very effective - even when I rotate the engine so it works. But there were a couple things I was skeptical about in using the bulb (which does work very well) and was thinking about removing it now that I've solved my air inleakage.
1. I'm sure it offers a little resistance to fuel flow but not sure if it makes much difference.
2. I have been a little nervous about over pressurizing the system using the bulb. I usually end up squeezing it pretty hard but it doesn't seem to have had any detremental effects on the fuel pump diaphragm or anything else in the system.
Any thoughts?
Thanks again.
