The engine is equipped with a pull start. and the only time I'm successful starting this motor is if I use starting fluid. Any suggestions as to what adjustments is necessary? Buy a primer pump. If I don't use the primer, it will take forever to start when cold. If I give it 3 pumps, the engine starts on the first pull. Make sure to have the enricher circuit open as well. When it's really warm outside or the engine has run in the last hour, I can modify the startup procedure. Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=105876#105876

    thanks guys. I'll try the closed throttle. And if that doesn't work well then I'll look into the primer pump. It never occured to me to consider the the lack of oil in starting fluid. -------- Scott Mac. MK II Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=105976#105976
