Ah, Rob, Gj, you guys are great. That info re the Saitos will be a big help, rich in cold. I couldn't get my 82 to START with the first cold snap--and haven't tried it since.
I thought of using lighter fluid to help, but both my Saitos have carb throats DOWN. How about squeezing some lighter fluid into the fuel lead?

Glad to know you passionate fliers. Fly well, gentlemen <--and if I hurt you with that appellation, tough ****.
