Choke Technique... 120-130 1967

How cold are we talking, we mean 40 below zero in Regina, Canada. My 62 Amazon rarely sees the low temps, but once a year usually in cold conditions and new snow I take her for a spin. I run lean carbs so it is full choke on start, back to half on running and one hand on the choke with the right foot on the gas pedal upon acceleration. In with the choke lever until up to temperature out back with partial choke as you start moving again. If you want to take off fast you must respond with the choke.
Live a little enjoy the drive, you are driving a real car; don't need to rush!

Looking for spring weather,
Robin
