ive been plugging the truck in at night recently, when i do that it doesnt take any pumps but if the block heater wasnt plugged in it takes 2 or 3 at the most, the tricky part is i park on a slope and i dont have an e brake, so there is some tricky foot work to start it up without rolling

My newly rebuilt 350 fired with 2 pumps the first time I tried it and still does. Don't have the manual choke hooked up yet on the Holley so have to give it a little gas to keep it running till it warms up a little.

Zero times----I put a Throttle Body on it. Just twist the key.

my 71 only gets a 1/2 pump and it fires up... when it really cold i'll push the pedal to the floor prior to hitting the key

2 Pumps in the morning here.it'll start the rest of the day no pumps.It'll idle after it starts in freezing weather too.A stock Q-jet and a cast intake is a good thing ...........................................................................sometimes

Yes beer means many things to me that's all for now cus I gotta pee.
