Cover the exhuast with your finger then pull on the pull start. Not hard, just enough to pull it out (your not trying to start the truck/car..just move fuel). Watch the fuel line coming from the tank to the carb. You should see fuel heading towards the carb. Once youve pulled it enough to get fuel all the way threw the line and into the carb(dont get to much fuel in the carb or it will flood it..just get the fuel right at the carb), then place your glow ignitor on the plug and proceed to try and start. Of course remove your finger from the exhaust when trying to start it.
