Re: Fuel Pressure Issues

Couple of things, it's not abnormal for the pressure to bleed of after a while. Even when the pressure bleeds off the bowls are still full. 5 seconds of cranking is not way out of line for an old school carbureted engine. Not unusual for it to start differently cold VS hot. Do you pump the gas pedal before or while starting? What type of choke and how is it set up?
