[QUOTE="KTM/MAICO, post: 95417, member: 20820"] With some of my old Huskys, I found it easier to prime the motor by taking out the spark plug and spraying some fresh starting fluid from a can with about a four second burst into the cylinder area. Starting fluid gets the motor running then I open the gas petcock and use the gas from the tank. Other trick you might use the old Maico trick of laying the bike down before kicking to clear out the carb bowl of old gas, water deposits, etc.. It's easier to start with fresh gas. Any further questions can best be answered by a husky dealer. Give Hall's in Springfield, Ill. or a major dealer associated with older huskys out west with your exact weather conditions a call and you should come out a winner. Those 390's ran pretty strong. The old petcocks can leak if you don't monitor them and flood the carb. [/QUOTE]
