Re: uh-oh it's so cold!

The filter is usually where the stoppage occurs.  You can warm it  
with a hair dryer.  Once you're running a while, the return fuel will  
help keep it warm.  A band heater installed will help you use less  
petroleum.  Or an additive.  I haven't had any starting problems.  
this week.
