Re: [T3] 2-step starting


<x-flowed>JimA=> You live in a hot climate

It's really not as hot here as you think. We're at over 5,200 feet, mind.

=> When you park a hot carbed type 3 in central Arizona I'd expect the
=> carb bowls to be empty within 15 minutes, and probably the fuel pump

I can't imagine why this would happen, even in Sonora in high summer. Where would all that fuel go?

=> do you have an electric fuel pump installed under the gas tank?

I do have an electric pump, although it's closer to the carbs than the tank. No, I don't need to refill the carbs to start.
