50 degree Cold starting 1986 chevy C-10

Like and Subscribe! Thanks for watching! Yes finally a good cold start on the old chevy. She really did not want to start. It was 50 degrees thought so that not to surprising she did not want to start. Even after having her started for a minute she still died and I had to start her up again and in the end she started to idle just as good as she used to when it is not cold.

Man, i do come back to this video quite frequently, I love the cranking of old carbed chevy's and how i took a while to startup, wish I had a truck i could cope start and whatnot.

[@lovetocrank]

I agree with you Callum!!

[@fastfordman1965]

Drove one of these as a work truck on a farm. Cold start give her two pumps and turn the key then wait to warm up and idle down. Warm start just turn the key. All the time every time.

GM need to bring back trucks like this the good old days

[@SargHWP]

The best sound to hear

[@CM79150]

The best!!! Would have loved to seen a good cold start like this from inside the truck

[@americanmusclemaniac9565]

I was going to do both but I was not able to but the next cold start will be inside the truck

[@danlevesque5437]

Little kid memories of mom having a panic attack at the light turned green and stalling at takeoff just to get it running again when it turned red again and then the road rage that followed I almost forgot until the famous stall under load 😱

Love the classic Chevy starter sound, but there was a little too much of it. Seems like the choke needs adjustment. Should fire right up even in 30 degree weather.

[@americanmusclemaniac9565]

Yeah the choke wasn’t very good on the truck

[@ThrottleResponse]

seems like a combo of she is really tuned for warmer weather, and she wasn't getting enough gas for those cranks at the beginning. Love this truck tho; they don't make'em like it anymore.

[@americanmusclemaniac9565]

She runs great with warm weather and takes forever to crank in cold weather. I was pumping the gas ever 10 seconds tho and I think I flooded it a little so I cranked right up eventually. Also thanks and yeah they really don’t make them like they used to

[@ThrottleResponse]

@@americanmusclemaniac9565 - no sweat,; sometimes that happens, your right foot gets a bit too excited and gives'er too much juice. Like you said, just keep on crankin' and she will light up.

[@americanmusclemaniac9565]

You could use this thing as a smoke bomb with all the smoke this thing made.

[@americanmusclemaniac9565]

At 2:18 it started right up some how

[@americanmusclemaniac9565]

Yeah I like to come back and see the video again sometimes to. I love the cranking and stalling of these old trucks. Carbureted motors are the best

[@americanmusclemaniac9565]

It actually wasn’t my dads truck. When I started to like old cars and trucks we didn’t have any old vehicles. He bought it for me for 1800 in 2019 when I was 13

[@americanmusclemaniac9565]

Yep getting my permit to drive in less than 2 weeks. I was pretty lucky to get the truck so early. My dad wanted to get one before there prices went sky high and he wanted one because he had a 4 wheel drive 84 Chevy K-10 as his first truck

[@FamiliaMichoacana1]

Why did it shut off after warming up?

[@americanmusclemaniac9565]

cause it wasnt warm yet
