cold start with cam stg2 -5C

[outtamymind]

it gets screwed into one of the coolant gallies on the block thus loosing some coolant.

I think it's like a freeze plug with a coil in it. could be wrong

you will not need a different tune either for winter and summer

thick oil will cause timing chain rattle (hydraulic actuator) and eeverything from the oil pump to the rings are having trouble when it's that cold out. I would invest in a block warmer. my guess is it's those cams man. any engine with a lumpy cam with have trouble in the winter

your injector size is fine, trust me lol

the cam...well its going to cause it to do weird things

Im not driving much cause the valve guide seal issue, but i took it out today and DAMN did it love the cold air

basically it has to do with your oil being cold and thick, colder air being adjusted for, alot of things

i wont say its 100% not your fuel injectors, BUT when i installed mine and cams and alll the bolt ons, vince tuned and said i wouldnt have "needed" them

here what i was not able to express in english.

a better tune or a poor tune can t give a shit with these condition

thanks for clarifying that. i wasn't sure i know that with carbs you had to adjust the carb for the differen't air density if you planned on driving it in the winter time and figured with a cammed car you would have to do the same due to the differen't lobing.

yeah man think about trying to start a sbc with a lumpy cam in the winter. doesn't really happen lol.

 

[outtamymind]

whats an sbc never heard of that before?

mine starts and runs...but you have to "tend to it"

when its below freezing out you have to have a FULLLLL battery charge haha, ive had mine on the trickle charger when not driving it so far this winter cause the cold kills it fast when it just doesnt jump to start lol.
