Default Start Ya Bastard

Any tips for using this to start engines that have been sitting for a while?

I have two Chev V6's, been sitting for a while, but otherwise in could nick. Can't speak to the status of the carbies though.

Turn over no probs, and have spark, so I'm assuming its a fuel issue.

(One is a mechanical fuel pump, the other is electric, but I assume they're both starving.)

Tried using the SYB, but to no effect. Tried opening the throttle and choke, but nothing. Have used it to start a recalcitrant diesel no probs, but not having much luck here.

Any suggestions welcome.
