[Chevelle-list] Hard to start!

[Pelle Andersson]

She’s very hard to start when she’s been sitting for a while (cpl of hours
to a few days).

What should I check first?

 

I have to crank the engine for 5-10 minutes (in intervals of course) & give
it a lot of “CRC Motor Starter”.

Once it starts it runs very rough & barely at all & I can’t give it any gas,
then it will die.

If I wait until it idles properly (takes 2-3 min) & carefully give it gas
3-5 times I can rev it properly!

 

Once it’s running it runs just fine & starts just fine if I start it within
30-45 min.

 

The distributor is new & the timing set to 12 degrees.

 

Any Ideas?

 

Mvh
