I've had it!
Someone please tell me why it takes 45 minutes to start my Motor Johnson 150 GT V6 J150STLCEM.
I follow the starting procedures, I even improv my own, but no matter what, it consitently takes 45 Minutes to Cold Start.
After it starts once, it's good all day.
Here's what I know. The primer works, it's getting gas, the carb is adjusted correctly. I have a brand new battery, solid clean connections.
Starter solenoid is on Run. New fuel lines. Runs great once started. Will go 60 MPH no problem. It's embarassing to stand in the driveway
for 45 minutes before heading to the lake looking like a jackass cranking away on this thing.
BTW, sometimes the Bendix gets stuck in the flywheel what do I lubricate this with. Powdered Graphite is not lasting.
If I could have just ONE question answered it would be "WHY does it take 45 minutes to start"? What is the significance in that length of
time to get it cranking?

This is what I do in the driveway until all my neighbors come out to see what the redneck is doing!
