Ok I actually had some time tonight after all. I replaced the fuel line kit from the filter to the primer and to the motor. Seems like the vacuum filter in the motor is holding fuel now. Bulb didn't go soft either. I will check on them tomorrow afternoon after work.
Also, I went ahead and put seafoam and ran it like the directions said. Ran it for 5-7 minutes then turned it off. Then ran it again for another 5 minutes. My question here is it cleaning the motor now because the 2nd time I turned it on, the motor ran at a higher rpm obviously loud and started smoking out of the exhaust. Wasn't sure if I was burning something or if that's the seafoam cleaning it out. The flush ears were on correctly and still pissing a good stream. Just had me curious on that smoky and smell after the seafoam.
I will check all these things again tomorrow pending replies.

You said "lately." So it hasn't always done this, correct?

Correct. As in the last 2 weeks. But never before. I did fill up the tank since I was going to be using it vigorously here in the next month, but Ive never added any additives or anything to it, until the seafoam tonight.
