Hi everybody
I posted a topic about this a while ago on bstuff, but haven't had any luck.
Anyways, for the last 2 months or so, my Beretta ('95 3100) ALWAYS has trouble starting in the morning. Or anytime it has sat still for 3 or more hours for that matter. I would try to crank it and crank it, sometimes totaling 10-12 tries to get it to start. BUT once it is started, it runs like a champ. No other problems, just cold starts. I have worked out a system for getting it started with minimal wear and tear. It goes like this:
1. Prime pump 2 times. Crank for 4 seconds.
2. Wait 10 seconds
3. Crank again. (at this point it will TRY to start but will stutter and die)
4. Wait 10 more seconds
5. Crank and fire over (occassionally I wll have to repeat steps 3-4)
This seems to be the most efficient way to start it in the morning, but I know its fuel related. Seeing as I have no running problems, I was thinking pulsator. What does everybody else think? I would like to try and tackle this problem as cost-effectively as humanly possible
Thanks!
