another question

I am by no means a carb guy so i have a question

I don't drive the rig much so it sits in my drive for around 4-5 days at a time and it is a normal drive with an incline .

after 4-5 days i will start it and it acts like it is not getting any fuel and will only run when the choke is on or giving it gas with the accelerator .

it takes it a while to clear out and runs ok at higher rpm's and will run and drive as long as i give it gas

once it shakes the issue it is good to go like nothing happened .

Simple answer is to clean the carb and see if it makes a difference , 4 or 5 days sitting should cause any problems .

sounds to me like you are losing pressure in the fuel system, this is causing fuel to drop back out of the system or evaporate so when you restart you are effectively bleeding the system again

this is what i was thinking .

it is a manual fuel pump on the block

is there a check valve ?
