Default RE: OS 70 Ultimate w/pump

I have a FS 70 ultimate with pump blue head. Runs great, no dead sticks, ran right out of the box, I have put about three gals of fuel through it. Here is the problem... if I leave the engine for a week then it will not start.... reason no fuel is getting into it. If I turn over the engine with a starter the pump pumps fuel to the carb. The way I start it is to inject some fuel into the carb from the flight box pump then it starts first time. Now it runs and starts first every time for that day. But if I leave it for a few days it will not start without an injection of fuel direct to the carb from my flight box pump. Anybody else had this problem? Another guy in my club has the same problem.
