BigRed350x Posted January 23, 2011 Report Share Posted January 23, 2011 I like to spray a half a can of ether into the carbs while I hold the throttle open. Starts so good it blows the pipes off half the time. You could also bump up your pilot a size during the winter to help with cold weather starting.
