Just keep a close eye on your batteries. I find that a couple drops of lighter fluid in the carb helps the engine start easy............. But then, you already knew that, didn't you.

Not quite sure how to take your post paul, Have I come across on this forum as some kind of know it all? I hope I have not, I did not know of the lighter fluid trick, I start my plane in my heated shop where I keep it, Then I taxi out the front door to the runway and take off. Thanks for the input guys, Looks like tomorrow will be a FLY DAY!
I think he meant that you obviously already know how to get an engine started in the cold since you have already flown it in the cold before.[sm=wink_smile.gif]
