Hi everyone,
I have a 53 DC that seems to always have had a hard starting problem after the first start of the day. In the morning it will fire right up, but after that it's a battle with the starter, but if I were to pop start it or pull it it would start right up. Once running it runs like a top. Here is what has been done to it:
New 12 volt system
Rebuilt head within last year
Rebuilt case 41 mag with proper plugs and wires
It seems to flood very easy. I usually turn off the gas at the sediment bulb when starting. Could this be a carb issue? It had a rebuild kit a few years ago.
I'm at a loss here! Very frustrating!
Thanks for any ideas.
Matt
