Hey guys,

I'm fairly this only started when I switched to BBM from log manifold. Basically it won't start the first crank, I can sit there for 5-6 seconds cranking but nothing, if I let go and try again, fires straight up. BUT if I turn the keys to accessories, then back then accessories again, I usually do this 2-3 times and it fires straight up.

I was thinking maybe the fuel pump? or maybe fuel regulator? I have recently changed fuel filter.

Any ideas?

Have you got the fuel lines around the right way? I had the same problem. Would fire up with some carby cleaner and then stop immediatley.

Well once it starts, it runs like a champ, so I guess the lines are around the right way. It's just starting it lol
