I know how everyone likes the same questions beat to death so here goes.........
This has been an ongoing issue for the last few years.
1971 Stock F that has been desmogged-not recently
1971 Stock Aisin that has been rebuilt-not recently
Electronic ignition.
Gear reduction Starter.
Plenty of cranking amperage/voltage.
- The truck starts instantly when outdoor air temp is approximately 50f or above.No choke or pumping pedal required.
-As soon as the morning temps start dipping into the low 40's the truck is very hard to start-sometimes it won't start until air temp rises into the upper 40's and above later in the morning/day.
-Seems to be getting plenty of fuel-sight glass always approx. half full.Can smell gas after cranking/pumping pedal.
-Full,half,partial choke-doesn't make a difference.
-Pump the pedal and hold it floored while cranking-doesn't make a difference (Need to do this for hot starts).
-No vac. leaks-draws about 20-22hg consistently
-Valves are adjusted correctly.
-Once it starts it runs like a champ.
-Carb is adjusted as per FSM.
Any ideas?
