Filling carbs for easy start
Posted: Sun Jan 28, 2007 10:58 am
Hello everyone
Haven't posted for a couple of years but been lurking... Lost job, nearly lost wife (who wrote her audi off driving in to the back of my Plus 2), but currently happpily wed, Plus 2 glued back together (and employed as builders van), and new career (as builder).
Anyway - car question... The car (on Webbers) has sat for about a month, and I wanted to try to avoid the long cranking before it fires.
Can I unscrew the wingnuts on top of the carbs, lift off the brass cap and pour fuel in? Is it that easy?
Or shall I just get the wife's (new) audi and some jump leads and give the starter motor a thorough work-out...?
TIA
