We have recently purchased a 76 Glenbrook with 455 and 76,000 miles on it. It was refurbished in 2009 with new paint, interior and other upgrades I have yet to experience. The coach has been stored indoors and was used very little for GMC Rallies, as the owner also had a Prevost for long trips. It has been sitting for the last five years, but was started and moved in and out of it's indoor storage for various reasons. I was told it is hard to start if it sits for any period and requires Quick Start or gas poured into the carb. f it sits for a week, it starts and runs perfectly, but if it sits for anything longer, this time it was 3 weeks and I poured a few ounces of gasoline, six times before it fired up and kept on running.I did not check if the primers were squirting out, but I also could not smell gas or hear them.I have been pre-occupied with a cottage reno project since buying the coach, but will be addressing a few issues in the next month.Thank you,
