Hard To Start
I just bought a 85 carburated 305. It's really hard to start when it dips below 30 F. It will turn over slow and when it does turn over the choke light comes on unless I give it gas? Maybe I am starting it wrong since I have only owned fuel injected vehicles. Any ideas would surely be appreciated because I'm taking this car to college and not my nicer camaro. THANKS!

Tap the accelerator (1/3 to 1/2 down typically is enough) and let off before you turn the key to the start position.
