Default s2 starting prblam / clicking from metering unit

As above i just put a new engine in a s2 and it does start and run fine but if not been started for a day or 2 it sometimes takes a while to start.

I also noticed that there is a clicking noise from metering unit when you switch ignition on and the pump kicks in.

I'm thinking its trapped air but unsre , anyone heard of this before do i need to bleed it or something.

Thanks.
