I realize that this probably does not apply here, but when my 250 has been sitting for a couple weeks and the gasoline in the float bowls has evaporated enough that the level is down, trying to start without priming the carbs requires a lot of cranking.

Maybe "hardly ever" would be more correct than "never".
