Another sneaky trick is to use a pump oiler or a plastic squeeze bottle with a fine tip nozzle on it to fill the float chamber with gasoline. Squirt gas into the vent tube at the top of the carb and you'll be able to use the accelerator pump to prime the engine. This trick also allows the engine to run for several seconds on the fuel in the float bowl.
