It really shouldn't be necessary to do this.

Given this engine needs intake, compression, power and exhaust.

Think air and fuel - without a primer bulb....

Pushing the primer bulb after the engine starts; to keep it running
tells the carb needs attention... cleaned/rebuilt.

Which is kind of what I meant when I said " I'll also try this and
maybe other fixes suggested here and see what happens."

I knew it had a problem. I was just saying that the suggestions would
be useful in solving it.
