Installed heat exchangers and instantly the car started and warmed up nice.
The push button will make a big difference on warm starts. As it is now, if I go for a drive, take a break at a scenic location for 15-20 minutes or so and then try to start it again it takes a long time of cranking to get it to slowly rouse from its slumber. With manual control of the cold start squirters I will be able to get it running and keep the revs up enough to hopefully keep it from stalling like it does cold. When cold, it needs three starts (sometimes two) but like clockwork after that third start it will keep running.

Evening Y'all. Notice I don't say guys anymore since we now have a member of the finer sex among us. (But I am not going to start dusting this place)

Hey rick

I have a date with a hot redhead coming up if all goes well. The kind of girl I wouldn't mind to really get to know. How about that...

Hey Vas

Haven't met her in real life yet, but we've been texting a bit and she's fun.
So I'm kinda looking forward to getting to know her.
