i know this: in the winter batteries are usually weaker. if that is the case
and you have a bad battery or two bad batteries it may not start due to lack
of current.
that's all i got.
(i'm sure my answer will wake a lot of folks up and make this list busy as
usual)

OK-
If this is such a slow news day, maybe we can ponder this.....my '79 Westy
(with restored used functional EFI - van originally came w/dual progressive
Weber I couldn't get to work worth snot), developed cold-starting problems
some weeks ago. The answer (I thought) was when I discovered that the fuel
pump was leaking very slightly. I figured that it was losing the fuel
compression overnight through the leak, so I searched and found a good used
35PSI OEM fuel pump and installed it..
Problem solved! For about two weeks. Now the problem's back. In the
present cold weather, I try to start her and the engine turns over, and
over, and over and never catches. In the process, I manage to run down
BOTH my batteries! Nice to have a 6 amp charger, tho!
Any ideas from any EFI gurus?
Thanks for any info.
