Re: [MV] M151A2 Fuel Pump Question

Because if it sits for any length of time, the mechanical fuel pump used by
the A2 takes quite a while to pump the fuel from the tank to the carb. The
civi fuel pump can be turned on beforehand, then the motor can be turned
over and she starts right up!
Thanks,
Scott
