Because if my gas line now has air in it...I will have to inject gasin the line.
Why not take the gas cap off and put a stick in there and see if you have gas. Or put some gas in the tank and see if it starts.

There really is not a good answer to your question. It depends on a lot of things. How fast the ideal, where the spark is set, how you have the carb set, what kind of shape your engine is in,If you have the 10 percent crap gas, the list goes on.
