was just wondering...

If mine sits for a day or more it's kind of hard to start and when it does get going it smokes like a chimney. I was wondering since a modified fuel pin gives the motor more fuel when the motor is not under boost, the extra fuel might be making it harder to start and run when cold.

I might go back to the stock fuel pin to see.

 

what color smoke?

 

How cold? Sounds like air bleeding into the system, or gelled fuel. Filter changed recently?

 

The fuel-pin don't work that way; it only comes into play with boost.

You have a different issue going on, most likely air intrusion.

 

Thanks for the input guys.

 

I haven't noticed any difference in cold starts after I installed my DennyT Stage II Fuel Pin. I would start looking for air leaks. Report back what you find.

 

There must be one. It fires off like a champ if I drive it every day, but if I let it sit, its hard to start and smokes like a locomotive until it warms up.

 

how cold are you talking? I know mine at minus -25c to -30c smokes till it warms up even plugged in and i know I don't have air leak ... mine starts without being plugged in till -20 c no prob it does sound like it has a big block cam in it , I try not to do that but if i have to i will. Are you grid heaters working ? I also see you have An asa Mod ,I noticed i get more smoke this year when starting cold since I put mine on too plus you are pushing big fuel with those sticks ,DDP 80 HP

 

I'm pretty sure my toaster is working, but I dont think my block heater is. I'm going to replace it soon.

I'm talking temps 0 to -15 F.

 

Don't replace the block heater without making sure it's not just a bad cord. The heater cord will go bad more often than the heater itself.

 

i just had to put a wolverine oil pan heater on and i messed with my cord and yes check it. mine is on its way out but got it working for now i cant find any splits in the block heater cord but i will assume it is the original cord so time to change it

 

I saw one on eBay yesterday for $17.
