Hi.
So I have an HPI baja 5b and a Rovan 32cc baja.
Both cars have been kind of sluggish lately so I decided to rebuild/clean the carbs on both. After taking apart, cleaning and resembling both now I have the following problem with the walbro 997 carbs. When I go to prime the engine prior to starting the carb does not want to prime. Absolutely no fuel is sucked into the bulb. I have checked fuel lines, tried with choke on/off, and even disassembled both carbs only to find that they are in fact currently assembled and hooked up. Since I'm not able t prime, I'm also not able to start either car.
What is the issue and what can I do to fix it? Please help!! Ive been tinkering arounf for the past 4 nights unable to figure out the problem.
Please cite any sources or link any pics/info that would be of help to me.
Thanks in advance gentlemen.
