Possibility of fuel line primer?

["John C. Gottstein" <gottstein@erols.com>]

Hi,
   My car takes a long time to start after sitting a while, because the fuel
drains back out of the fuel line.  I bought an electric fuel pump which I
didn't put in yet to replace my mechanical one, but I just realized that
boat engines have these primer bulbs that you squeeze to get the gas
flowing.  Would that work on my fuel line, or am I just asking for trouble?

Thanks,

John
