[QUOTE="StuF, post: 592669, member: 17262"] Filling the tank from empty can sometimes stir up residue in the bottom if it gets really low. There should be a fuel filter straight out of the tank outlet for this purpose - to catch it. If it is partially blocked it could restrict the fuel flow causing it to be hard to start. If the filter is ok - and you are still having issues it might be worth removing the carb and flushing it through with some carb cleaner. Check the electrics first though. [/QUOTE]
