Re: Need some cold start help
What gchemist said. Not much oil wandering around the top of the engine... Either too much fuel or not enough... Hard to say, the exhaust was pretty dark but it sounded starved to me. I always would give my carbed trucks about three good pumps when it was really cold and hold 1/2 throttle. It would crank fire and die. Then start up on the second crank. Those were all quadrapukes though. I too love TBI, but a carb with a properly adjusted choke can work just fine. -20 is pretty cold without plugging in. Mine will start like it's 0 at -40 when plugged in. Block heater, oil pan heater, battery blanket and tranny pan (on the autos) heater. Good luck.
