The auto enricher rarely gives trouble on those motors but nothing is impossible. Also how old and what brand is your primer bulb? Only use OEM products,the check valves inside of the aftermarket one's suck.
Montauk, When i cleaned the carbs I just pulled the bowls and the top plates and used carb cleaner in a can to shoot thru all the holes, didn't take out or adjust any jets etc. They are very very simple carbs.

I think i am going to clean out and drain the fuel filter first and see if that helps. I don't think the primer bulb is OEM, but was having the same problem when i had an OEM bulb on it.

I have never drained / cleaned the fuel filter on the engine so i'm thinking that's probably the problem.

I hope it is not a power pack..
