    fuel issue

    when my argo (1987 8x8 with M18) sits for a couple days, the fuel drains out of the line back into the tank (looses prime). Then i have to crank the hell out of the starter and add alittle gas to carb to get it started. would a shut off valve help or add a fuel primer bulber?

    A 5$ Inline shut off valve would solve the problem.

    If you put it in a "Sneaky" place, it could add a measure of thieft protection as well.
