Cool Re: Hard start

Welcome paa!

Sounds like a fuel pump problem or clogged filter to me.

i agree with EZ, pull the fuel line off the carb only,
step on the gas and see if its pumping.

good luck, Dew

Check you throttle cable adjustment. You can find the directions for a newer model in the stickies, but the concept is still the same. Is your throttle plate opening all the way?

You need an air filter on there, without that it will lean out unless you messed with the carb.
