A gallon or two is enough to get going,...Gas in, then crank if you have a mechanical fuel pump.
if you have an electric fuel pump, just power it up a few times at the key before cranking.
Priming the carb is good, but just a little gas is needed.
If you already smell gas and have not been using any under the hood to help, wait, then hold the throttle fully applied and keep it there while cranking.
You need to provide your vehicle info to get a better answer.
year, make, model, engine, etc. list any unusual parts or non factory systems.
Yes. To *prime an empty fuel system fill the tank and *switch the key one click before the start position and leave the key in that position for 10 seconds. *Repeat at least five times, turning the key completely off between fuel pump priming each time.
Pour at lest 5 gallons in the fuel tank. You may need to prime the carb to get it started. Remove the breather and pour about 1 ounce of gasoline in the carb and immediately start the engine. Repeat if it dies.
Yep, although it may take a bit of cranking. Best bet, if you have a weak battery, is a can of starting fluid. Spray a bit to get the engine running.
It may need priming but try the full tank first.
My car stalled without petrol, will filling the tank get the car started, is there anything i should do as well? , its a carb engine
