1981 vette hard starting
I have a 81 vette all pollution controls have been removed except the PCV valve to the carb, all new electronics, plugs, and wires, just the engine removed the carb with LARS help purchased used carb and sent it to LARS, when i installed the carb also replaced the manual fuel pump, car started great for awhile now 18 months later have to pump the gas pedal in order for it to start. if it sets for 72 hours, and i remove the air cleaner, and manualy move the throttle linkage there is no gas going into the carb. so a neighbar who also owns a vette told me the bladder in the fuel pump is bad what are your opinions
