Default Problems getting gas to my 4 barrel carb
I have to prime my carb. with a little bit of gas in order to get it to start. My fuel filter is filling with gas, so I imagine my fuel pump is alright. Any ideas why I'm not starting? One it gets started, it runs fine, but no start.

Welcome to the site!!!!It may be that the carb is leaking the fuel back from the bowl and loosing prime.What type of carb is it?
