Primer bulb will not fill. Got it started but will not idle. When I pump the bulb it puts pressure in tank but no gas in primer
Try switching the tubes on the back of the primer bulb
SOURCE: routing of fuel lines from tank to primer bulb to carb
Line with filter goes to carb inlet,
Line from carb goes to inlet side of bulb.
Line from bulb goes to tank
SOURCE: need diagram of fuel lines
There are 7 different types of the 1950 model (types 1 - 7) and it came with one of these 2 carbs Walbro or Zama. The carbs are different as are the fuel line connections for each one.
Although this video is for the promer bulb you can see the routing of the fuel lines.

You will have one line from the fuel tank connecting to primer bulb the 2nd line going to the carb. If you connect it backward it does not pump fuel into the carb.

(FYI Types 1 - 5 all have the same fuel line routing.)
SOURCE: Primer bulb is part of the fuel cap.
