What do you think is the problem? Thank you
Setting the choke is what it sounds like. You should pump the gas once to set the choke and possibly a couple more times when starting an old truck.

Its an old (non-fuel injected) vehicle and that happens. No gas in carb and it needs to crank to get it in there.
