Thanks Mike, good to hear this might not be too big of an issue. For what it's worth, pulling the cold start lever is a Herculean task - although I don't know if it's the cable or the injector - haven't tried pulling it in the back. But I know that's the side of the pump that's dirty - I'll get out my manuals, search the archives, and see what comes next. Regards, John > It will not stop without intervention.
