Starting the engine question!
Hi all!
I have doubt, my engine is hard to start at the beginning but when engine start no problem, good idle and when stop and start again no problem (engine warm). engine at idle (at the garage) for 20 minutes and not stop. I discard carburetor. This happen when start engine for first time in the morning. Any idea? Is this normal? Thank all Hary

Re: Starting the engine question!
You say the first thing in th AM its hard to start..How long has it been setting? Over night or several days? Will it start, but you have to grind and grind the starter before it fires? If It will start right up OK over night or within 2 days or so, but not after several days the carb is probably dry.

Re: Starting the engine question!
Sounds like you should try purchasing your gasoline at a different gas station or one that has had its underground tanks replaced recently.
