Mike,
Sorry, I was suggesting you advise Andrew.
I know how to start my solex car, Press the pedal to the floor once or twice
SLOWLY.
My spare SU manifold, carbs and air cleaner are in the shed were I unloaded
them 4 years ago.  I think?

Phil,

Pull out choke knob. Put key in ignition and crank engine until fuel bowls
fill and presto, it starts. Keep you foot off the gas pedal while cranking.

Easy as 1,2,3.

Mike
