After posting the first message in this thread, I did some weekend work on the Cold Start Valve and got it working. One thing to add to the first list: Make sure the electrical connector from the Thermal Time Switch to the Cold Start Valve is good, especially at the ends. On mine, the wires had pulled back from the connection at the Cold Start Valve, so that whenever the connector was pushed onto the CSV, one of the wires would slide back and not make the connection. Tighten that up with some electrical tape (or better, replace the connector), and you're good.

I don't know if this will be of use to anyone, but there it is. And add any suggestions you might have!
