I have noticed a few folks have said they have problem getting their car to warm up when using carbs...My bus has a carb(single). I used to have trouble getting it to warm up, and it would stall on me all the time in the winter before it had warmed up. Then I found out there is an electric choke on the side of the carb that you adjust as the temp changes (probably every season) now it starts fine. -Kevin -----Original Message----- From: joshua brooks [mailto:joshua_bro@msn.com] Sent: Thursday, February 26, 2004 9:25 PM "...The carbs don't work well while the engine is cold. On a cold morning you may have pump the throttle and then hold it down for a couple of minutes before the car will idle. The car is also hard to drive before the engine warms up...."
