Re: Attempting my first build 72 K5

I've never actually done it but from reading a few things the engine should idle for a good 30 seconds on just the fuel in the carb bowls. They say to add about 1/4 cup of gas. Are you adding that much?

Also in the reading it says that within that 30 seconds of idle if the fuel pump hasnt pulled gas from the tank to the carb you have other issues.
