My van usually sits there for two or three weeks at a time.I always have to pat the gas pedal two or three times and turn on the ignition switch.Same process two, sometimes three times before the engine starts up and running.Sure, I can crank it up every two or three days and it usually starts right on up the first time.I think the gas evaporates out of the carburetor float bowl.I am thinking I might drill a little hole in top of the metal air cleaner cover and rig a narrow copper line/tube and have the line running between the engine dog house cover thingy.I can pour about a spoon full of gas into the copper line/tube, straight to the carburetor and the engine should crank up first time every time.Any thoughts on that? cuhulin
