Malcom- Thanks for the advice. The behavior of your Solex in cold weather sounds identical to my Holley/Weber. I guess my problem yesterday was due to some frozen moisture that got sucked into the pump; it started up fine last night and got me around town with no problems today. I added a bottle of HEET to the tank, though. I guess the next course of action will be to change the fuel filters and keep an eye (ear?) on the pump! Thanks again- JJ > I have a 2 barrel progressive Solex carb on my 91, and in winter it >nearly always starts right up - then dies - then fires up - dies - for >about 3 times, then it just purrs along.
