Lou, one last point. When I start my car after it has been sitting cold for a week or two, I pump the throttle twice, turn the key, and she starts just like a bomb going off. BUT, and this is a BIG BUT, if the car has been driven at all that day, and I touch the throttle, the car will not start. What I have to remember to do is just turn the key, and not touch the throttle -- and she starts every time. Unfortunately, about once a summer I forget and hop behind the wheel of a hot car and pump the throttle. When I do, I now don't even bother turning the key. I just get out, go back in to the oyster bar, and give it a while.  Chances are you knew this tip, but I thought I'd pass it along anyway. And if Chas writes any comments to this post, just ignore them.
