Hi, my problem at the moment is fuel not reaching the engine when i try to start the engine, although a good blow of the exhaust helps me start it, in the long run, i'm doing my car harm.
Any tips to help my tank, fuel filter and engine work better as a team?
Would a pump tank be a good upgrade?
Please help if you can :breakdown
No pictures yet i'm sorry, soon to be added

You will always need to prime the engine before starting. Most of us achieve this, by plugging the exhaust with a finger, and cranking the mill over. Clear fuel lines are recommended, so you can see the fuel make it to the carb. Once you see the fuel make it to the carb, your ready..
The primer style tanks are known for having air leaks, so I would stay away from them..
 
yeh like imbroken said u will need to prime it everytime you start it...if ur keeping ur car in good shape...

also a hyper valve was designed to keep the fuel from going back into the gas tank...dont quote me on this one but thats what i heard...
 
Imbroken's suggestion is a good one.
You might also consider a team associated primer ball.
It comes standard on the Monster GT but can be purchased separately.
