My AT has the same problem. The solution may be the tuning of the fuel pump
mentioned by Reimond Fels. If the machine is not running for a longer time,
the carbs run out of fuel. But the fuel pump only works if you press the
start button or if the engine is already running. that means, that the motor
gets not enough fuel in the first seconds.
My current porblem is, that I am not able to read
the language of the netherlands, so the homepage of Reimond is like chinese
to me. :) Does anyone has a translation of his homepage-part about the
fuel-pump modification? (this part is not transpated by him)
I do not want to start on my own, before having read some tips.
Or a more direct question: I have took a look at the electricity plan of the
AT. There is a electrical switch before the fuel pump, which seems to be
activated by the CDI unit. Is it enough to build a short cut between the two
main conenctions? (I donot want to make such a time-delay like Reimond did)
Or can this thing just be left out?
(BTW. the GWW-provider is nopw again reachabla under www.gww.NL!!!)
Thanks for any answers.
