This is the first winter in 8 yrs that I'm not running my 120. In all that time not once was a no start caused by the carbs (and my carbs are sloppy!). It was always poor spark, I can start my engine at -30o no problem as long as the spark is good. Afew years ago I installed electronic ignition and since then it's like a new car in the winter,pull the choke out all the way, crank 3-4 revs, adjust choke back to at least 1/2 -3/4 out, and we're off. Please note: Ilive in Canada.
