Cold Start

Cold start of my 1988 ford f250

Hold the clutch, heel on the brake, toe on the throttle just holding it open a bit..... all the while trying to manage the choke, the throttle and keep it from rolling back because the parking brake doesn't work. That's me in my '68 on a cold day.

Nice vid. She started without needing a jump that time. ;) How many miles on that 7.3?

N4ANE Awesome. Those motors run forever. Have one here with 330K and other than not liking cold mornings, it runs great.

Booted Guy01 thanks I am planning in having this for ever

What do you find this is like for starting on a REALLY COLD MORNING if you haven't used it for about a week? How many attempts does it usually take before it will fire up? What does it pull up really steep hills like with a very cold engine?
