I have a 1986 4.3 omc 180 hp that is hard starting when it sets for a week or more. The choke is closed but its like there is no fuel until it cranks for over a min. Runs great then will start on just 2 cranks. I installed a new fuel pump thought the fuel was leaking back into the tank. I thought there is a valve on the tank to stop the leak down. Could that be the problem.
