I have a walk behind Briggs & Stratton low end mower. When I prime it before starting, the primer bulb is VERY slow to return. I can start the engine and it will run fine for about 5 minutes. Then it slowly dies as if it is running out of fuel. When it finally quits completely, the primer bulb is sucked all the way in.
