If it's been sat a couple of hours prob has dry fuel bowls with modern ethanol fuel, so your just pumping air. If mechanical fuel pump. A few cranks first, stop, pump start. Trick if you flood. Hold foot to floor and she will clear her throat 👍❤️
My father has a 1957 Corvette with a built 350 Chevy small block and a 420 mega blower from B&m All he does is he turns it over until he sees fuel pressure on the fuel line gives it a couple pumps and it starts right up and idles perfect.
sounded like the Timing was off. I only have to do 1 or 2 pumps in my 65 mustang. then hit the Key & she fires up, my cold idle 1100 to 1300, dependant on outside weather. Electric Chokes are good.
I'm just wondering how the fuel atomizes in the intake when the intake has no vacuum. Turn key to on pump twice crank repeat till it idles on its own, if it won't idle cold on its own choke or check carb tuning
I alway just pumped twice, and then held the pedal to the floor until it started and then feathered it until it warmed up enough that it could idle 😂. Works on my 1953 Studebaker and on my 1977 Airstream Argosy lol, both will fire up instantly.
I had a 69 Super Cobra Jet which we did a complete restoration! Boy what a fun car to drive!

Why get it off I don't before the oil is up?
Racing the engine in Park before turning it off, will put enough gas in the caborato . so your cold start will be easy 🤔
Here's the trick, get an EFI Snipper
Really?
Ya you don’t need any oil up there just get it right up to 1500 rpm!!

Holy heck we’re cold reving engines now! Hello Mr. George, yes sir about the new guy, He no good 😂
Well he pumped the gas three times before starting and then another three times after starting. I heard it. Tell me I'm wrong.
Man I love the sound of that car. I miss my 68 very much.
My favorite mustang is this 1969
I only have to pump my once and I've got a boss 9

beautiful, friggin beautiful i remember many morning waiting for my 65 to warm up
Alternatively:
Get EFI.
I mean… people with dirt bikes have been doing this for 70 years.
Blue Oval rules 💙
Yeah ok. Cause gas is just gonna magically going to atomize in a intake with the engine off. That's not how it works bud
My 64 Galaxie will start up in the morning with 2 pumps of the pedal no hesitation.
People with ev's: p a t h e t i c
Gran turismo 6 music playing in the background
I have always wanted a classic car.
Or you can just turn the key and pedal the gas till it starts and then rev it a couple of times
Thanks
I def been doing it all wrong lol

The trick is to tune it so it just lights off without you pumping it at all.
I never had another problem once I started using 100% petroleum fuel. The stuff with ethanol mixed in regularly gave me vapor lock.
Us old farts remember how to start a carburated vehicle, even with a manual choke.
Every carbureted car is different to start
Def not a bitch to start since it has a key 😂 motorcycles are a whole nother kind of bitch to start
My dream car ❤❤
My 77 caprice starts just fine even without pumping after I rebuilt the carb
