Newbie - Mach .15RE not drawing fuel
I'm breaking in my new engine. I ran 2 tanks at idle only and let it cool for a while. I went to crank it again to start the "soft" throttle driving, but now it will not draw fuel. I pushed fuel to the carb by unhooking and blowing on the exhaust hose. I have an electric starter and when I hit I can feal air coming out the exhaust, but the fuel does not move.
Did I break it already?

my carb never draws fuel .. ever until its fired up.. so just do what the other dude said but some fuel in your carb should fire up in like 3 pulls
