Default Re: Starter cranks, then spins

With cold starting, I find by opening my GAV valve a quarter of a turn counter clockwise and using the choke, my A will then start right up and keep running. With The GAV valve closed, the engine may not start at all. The engine needs the richer fuel mixture from the GAV valve to keep on running. After the engine has warmed a bit, for leaner running, then the GAV valve can then be adjusted closer to closed (clockwise). I hope that this helps.
