Remote Start

[Anadrol]

I've got remote start on my '78 4x4 auto tranny, carb'd.

It works less than half the time under normal conditions. I only have it because it came with the alarm system I bought. If I want it to work properly and start up with the remote, then it has to have been running recently.

There are only a couple advantages to having it.

1.) I can manually start it up, then hit the remote start button, and then take the key out and it will keep running for a set period of time. This means that in the morning, I can fire up the truck and leave for work in my other truck. The old chevy will run for 12 minutes with the doors locked and no key in it. I can change this to 2 minutes, 5 minutes, whatever. This is an easy convenient way to run the truck for a few minutes every few mornings.

2.) For the same purposes above, I can at least TRY the remote start in the mornings. On a cold morning when the truck hasn't been run overnight, there's a low likely hood that it will start right up with the remote start, but it doesn't hurt to try, and every once in a while, it will work.
