June 15Jun 15 comment_676657 That wasn’t the case for me when I brought my 78 back to life. Ran it from 5 gallons or less. Primed right away.

It has to do with pumping air or fluids, it's bad in pumping air..But i do believe that the s30 is much better to start after it had a empty tank.. i once had a empty tank (s30/240z) and only 8-10 ltr fuel made it run in seconds.Héy Site, that picture reminds me of those vid's about the farm from Jeremy Clarkson, diddly squat farm.. (on Youtube) where toddlers play the rolls of all the people in the series!
