Primer bulb leaking
Using my primer bulb on my lift pump today I noticed it leaking a bit. I'm guessing it only does this when using the primer. This has also happening with a friends 12V. Could I be getting air in my fuel system from this. Is this something I should fixing ASAP?

I wouldn't worry, mine has been leaking when using the prime for years with no ill effects.
