    I don’t know, Tom….I’d let you give up on it….I most always start those engines cold at 3/4 throttle. That way, there is no baloney. They START. Like you said, you just throttle it down as soon as it fires off. Now, at idle speed and warmed up, they should start at slow position with ease….

    What was the compression again???

    Long live American manufacturing!
