Hi all just got my new 126 delivered from Poland now the issues start haha I took it off the lorry in the uk and it was a bit splutters so topped it up with fuel as it was empty then drove away lacking pier now it won't start the fuel lines don't seem to be leering much fuel through I remove the fuel line from the carb and can suck fuel through the filter is all clear should it just flow out or only when the pump is running cheers in advance guys and girls

It's a mechanical pump as standard so you'll need a good cranking speed to pull the fuel up it is been standing a while.
I often run it off a high jerry can briefly if it's been not been ran in a while to give it chance to flush and gumf out

Cheers thanks it's just seems it's struggling to get to the pump and up to carb all the lines are clear and filter clear so hot a new pump on its way to try that hopefully itl be ok cheers

The valves inside the pump tend to leak a bit backwards with the time. It can also decrease the pumping pressure. Put a non-return valve after the filter, no mater if the pump is a brand new one.
