[QUOTE="Pappy, post: 463470, member: 3278"] [size=5]Okay, lets rule out the fuel pump and a check valve in the supply hose primer bulb right off the bat. Why? Because all either one of them is doing is filling up the fuel bowl on the carb. If the bulb can be pumped until firm then the carb is full....period. It's not spark because it starts and runs.............just cold natured. If the engine has a choke with the old fashioned choke blade then I would do a visual check and make sure that [u]the choke blade is absolutely 100% closed[/u]. If not it can be a bear to start. Let's start there with the simple stuff. [/size] [/QUOTE]
