The other side of possible flooding causing a startup issue is NO fuel. There is a Schrader fitting (black cap, pass-side fuel rail), where you are able to connect a gauge. IF during cranking (no start) you are getting low or no pressure, you have found your problem. If the pressure is up around 60 psi, it is not a fuel supply issue.
Some trial and error is normally required.
That makes sense, but it is always just the first crank. Sometimes the second. 95% of the time it will start on the second crank. The other 5% it starts on the 3rd crank.
And this doesn't matter whether it is a cold or warm start. First thing in the morning, the first crank doesn't work, the second crank does. Arrive it around town, stop and get gas. First crank doesn't work, second crank does.
I'm hopeful it has something to do with the fact it hasn't been driven much and really does just need a good cleaning out. I'm going to run a couple of tanks of good gas through it and possibly some seafoam.
