Hi ya,

Get ride of the flame trap it is no longer needed! There was a technical bulletin many moons ago about removing it. I now just clean the area up every oil change and the throttle body too.

If you are having cranking problems ensure your cables have no corrosion on them. Clean them up with a wire brush, put a new rotor and cap on if its got more than 30k miles on it does wounders for start up.
