Here is what you do...


Place the palm of your hand over one carbs throat to completely seal it off from any air and hit the start button for 3 seconds. Then repeat to the other carb for 3 seconds.

Then try and start it normally.

You just need to use your compression to suck fuel through the circuits in the dry carb.

Re: No Gas Comming Out Of The Jets

Maybe you have the fuel lines reversed? Pulse line disconnected? Needles and seats are stuck shut? Any of those will cause a problem like your problem.

Re: No Gas Comming Out Of The Jets

how much suction should the pulse line have i placed my finger over it and it just seams to be pushing air out. should their be a strong suction from the hose or no. could the fuel pump be bad

Re: No Gas Comming Out Of The Jets

also when i placed my hand over the carb it dident feel like their was much suction mabye i just dident have a good seal but i will try that again. also the drain valve on the motor could that be keeping the motor from gaining pressure?

also i just tryed the hand over the carb and it starts to run with my hand over one and then i let my hand off of the carb and it runs for about a second and then it dies.

Try it again, after making sure all your fuel lines are connected to the right places.

Do it to both carbs!

Each cylinder is a separate engine when you have multiple carbs.
