Hi All,
I was wondering what everyones procedure was to cold start their car without choke on a cold morning. Where I live a cold morning would be 46 degrees farenheit.
I pump twice and crank it for 5 secs, and repeat this procedure 3 times minimum until I get the car to fire up and stall, then one more pump it starts fine and about 30 secs of dancing on the throttle.
Should I be cranking it for longer after the first two pumps or keep cranking until it fires up after the initial pumping?
Will cranking it for longer drain my battery? I don't know if my current method is injecting to much fuel into the engine. Its definitely not flooding the engine as there is no overpowering fuel smell and the car does start.
Car is a 69 427. New starter, new plugs, recently rebuilt and tuned quadrajet. The choke coil was stretched so the choke mechanism was removed.
Thanks,
NJ
