Tighten the bolt on the back of the head. You are having a lose of prime issue. Also make sure your other fuel connections are nice and tight.

could be too much fuel pressure creating hard start on the vp44. What is your fuel pressure? Could also be failing VP electronics if its not a fuel/prime/air issue.
