<VV> Starting Problem

[J R Read_HML]

Yea,

(Yea is CHICK....ago for yes)

Sometimes you have to hit the accelerator pumps a couple of times.  My usual 
approach is two quick 1/2 to 2/3 throttle shots and turn the key again.  I 
give that one two tries.  After that...   it is throttle held on the floor 
and crank the starter for about 5 - 6 seconds.

Start over from step one.
