Hey everyone, I've just completed installing new engine parts on "Lucille". New fuel pump with built in gas filter, new SS fuel line to carburetor, new SS vacuum line from dizzy to carburetor and newly restored Carter W-1 carburetor.

I have a startup question. Since the carburetor hasn't seen any fuel yet, what would be the proper steps in getting it all fired up? I now have a properly hooked up choke and throttle connections.

All input will be greatly appreciated!
