cold motor

[baconbiscut]

last night it got down to about the mid 40's and i had my motor siting out in it. So when me and friend wanted to go fishing this morning it just wouldn't start. i felt the block and it was ice cold. When the motor is about room temparature it always starts with in the first pull. Any advice thanks Dan.

Is the choke/primer working properly?

Re: cold motor

dan, are you pumping up the tank, till the button is hard, pull the choke out, throttle set to start, then pulling? 3-4 times and push choke back in for a couple of tries? they cold will make it a little harder to start, but not much. remember i'm running a 55 15hp.
