on my 5th gen when I am down really low I bump start it and if I try to add power immediately I get a momentary hesitation. If I wait for about 1-2 seconds after bumpstarting then releasing the clutch and adding power I get no hesitation. If I have more than 2 gallons in the tank I get no hesitation. That may not be useful information as your 6th gen may not be wired and plumbed the same.
