I turn on the key and pump the fuel a few times. Repeat MANY times. I’ve tried just holding the fuel open about 50% but that normally only gives me a backfire. Once it starts I need to give it a little extra fuel for 30 seconds or so and in runs fine. Normally the first time I pull out in traffic I need to pump a bit extra. After that it’s great. Running PMOs

Running PMOs NO WAY you should have to do that. Either your technique is wrong or the tuning is off. Hoping you get answers. I don't know your choke setup, but it should be choked, no pumping, no rigamarole nonsense. Just start and run until it's time to take the choke off. Messing with the pedal should not be so necessary. In fact that's probably when you get the backfire. You once said you could build a RUF level build. Now's your chance to conquer. You should be able to start it with no pedals touched. Wouldn't FI be nice about now? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif) |
