It seems that if the temp is below 60, my 89 camaro won't start right away. I replaced the IAC valve this weekend, which helped it idle better when it warms up. I read in my manual that there is a cold start valve. Don't know if that is the problem. Any help would be GREATLY appreciated.

What do you mean it won't start right away? DO you mean it cranks for a long time before actually starting?

What about after it has been running?

I ask because it may be the same problem I'm having.

Yes... it takes several cranks and a little gas pedal to put fuel in the carb and let sit. But yesterday it was 97 degrees and it started right away. After I drive it, I can turn it off and start it right away.

I've never driven my car on a hot day (haven't gotten one yet haha) My engine is fuel injected TBI. I wonder if it's just normal.

I never had that problem last winter/spring. It would start right away. I have the 2.8L, V-6. I spent 15 minutes at work trying to get it to start. I am thinking to replace the cold start valve, but want to make sure.
