Than fuel it up and before cranking (not touching anything else, no = mixture, no throttle) switch on the low boost pump. Crank and just add = throttle when it is firing up. This actually works until 30min. after shut down (so in case you know = you are going away again). The reasoning behind this is that the fuel stays into the spider and has = less space to vaporize (it has been explained to me like that many years = ago).=20 Works really good, just try it, you will love it. =3D=3D Ronald=
