I ran my gas tank dry last week. Then it sat for a week in Nevada heat. Now I can't get it to start, not even a glimmer of catching. It would start and run fine before this. Accel pump squirts, there's fuel in my glass filter right at the carb inlet, and the sediment bowl on the pump is full. I don't have an electric fuel pump. It will almost catch when I stab the accelerator pedal while cranking. Have tried with choke open vs closed, pedal down vs not, no difference. Do I need to manually prime the carb? If so, where do I add the gas and how much? Carter BBS carb. Thanks
