My featherlite Plus is about 3 years old. Has worked without any problem until last time I went to use it. Would not start. Used starter fluid and started and worked until all started fluid was gone. Bulb is hard to press and engine does not seem to get gas.

Hi,
If the bulb is hard to press, I would say stuck check valve. Do not use starter fluid, it will ruin an aluminum machine.
Peace,
Clarke
