Check the fuel bulb while the engine is running. If there is a leak in the fuel lines that could be your problem.
If the bulb stays "tight".....lines should be ok.
Try pumping the fuel bulb while slowing the engine down. If pumping the bulb, keeps the engine running....the fuel pump rubber diaphram is probably bad.
Another cause could be that the filter on the fuel pump could be clogged up. Did the engine set for a few months without being used? This could allow a thin varnish film to form in the fuel lines.
All these problem are fairly easy to fix......if you are inclinded to do so yourself.
Not sure why the engine light came came on...... anyone know?
