Cold Morning? What's that?

The SOP for today's gas is a lot different than for 1967 gas. Every car will act different, so what I am about to suggest may or may not work.

Here's what you should try:

Pump the gas once all the way to the floor then let off the pedal completely. That engages the choke if the carb is working properly. Crank the motor over. It should fire up but it will probably not continue running. Rinse and repeat. The fuel bowl in the carb is probably empty or nearly so after sitting for more than a few hours.

Some will advocate multiple pumps of the pedal, but always go completely to the floor to engage the choke.

Here's what I do:

Switch on the electric fuel pump for about 5 seconds. Switch off the coil. Crank for about 3 rev's then switch on the coil. Catch and hold the RPM at about 1100 for about 10 seconds then let it idle. It usually runs on its own after that. For hot starting I let the starter run up to maximum RPM before engaging the coil.
