I have done this, just pull the floats, carefully fill the bowl AND replace the tops tight so the fuel doesn’t splash out on the exhaust.   Gives about 30sec run time.

Hi, Paul.  There are likely better, easier, safer ways to run fuel to an en=
gine for test-starts.  One way would be to take a jerry can of fuel and run=
 a line to the carbs.  You could hook up a Fawcet electric fuel pump if you=
 can't raise the can sufficiently for gravity feed.  Saves the worry over s=
pills, overflow, and so on, and gives you a bit more time with the idling e=
ngine before the fuel starves out.   Just keep in mind not to idle too long=
 to avoid overheating if you haven't set up the radiator yet. =20

It's a free country and you can do it if you like, but I'd never do this esp=
