No fuel!

[Rewhyuk]

Hey everybody! I had to shelf my savage all winter due to a couple surgeries, I was all excited to fire her up today but could not get fuel to syphon, I took off the hose on the exhaust pipe and blew into it but still no luck. Any suggestions?

make sure your tank is not cracked or the lid is shut well

Make sure that your lines are not clogged up or a hole in them also.

Tank and lines are good, when I blow on the line that I disconnected from the exhaust pipe to the tank lid I have resistance until I crack the lid open and air flows through the hole into the tank, I thought that the O ring in the lid was wrecked but it's perfect. I took the line from the tank to the engine off(at the tank) and fuel was coming out of the tank perfectly. Stumped!! Weird!

maybe the fuel fitting on the carb is blocked.

Good thought I'll check that when I get home in the morning.
Thanks
