Hi David, how are you? I have both systems, both work well although the gas system can let you down in cold weather, the gas just doesn't want to leave the cannister, you can of course start from your main top up cylinder.
I have had two near nasty problems with K St I have had two burners go faulty on me (which JC replaced FOC) when this happens the engine WILL fill up with fuel. Overall though I prefer the K St it's a much more sivilised way to start an engine.

The new V3 burners dont have this problem anymore.
it is completely renewed , and not using a spring covered in ceramic anymore.
it is now made of a different material and dont have any parts inside the material anymore.
even the startup time can be shorter now.
and like someone else said , never prime your system exept after a fresh install.
just take a peek in the exhaust while starting sometimes , if you see a small flame it is ok.
