RE: [T3] hard to start

That has happened to my Squareback.  I do have a quick fix that will get it
running.  Push down all the way on the gas, turn the key, and slowly let up,
just as if you were starting it in cold weather.  It should crank a few
times, speed up, then start for you.  It will usually kick it over the first
or second time you try.  Good luck, I hope this works.

   My 66 fastback is hard to start, especially after being driven. It
has to sit an hour or so. any suggestions? It has dual carbs and is 6
volts.                              Also, I'd like a Bentley Manual but
cant find one for this car. Did they make them? What other manual would
be best?
