I've found that a couple tromps on the gas pedal does as much as the cold start injector -
as far as I know mine doesn't work (wiring problem) but if you'll e-mail me your mailing
address I'll send you a cold start injector.
send it to gdowns [at] cableone [dot] net [nothing follows]

Dave Farrington refurbed an AAV for me and it works great. I sent him a link to your post.
BTW I drove the Yellow Peril through a couple winters without either cold start or AAV.
Had to keep my foot on the gas for the first few minutes but as soon as it was warm it was OK.
You can also put an electric AAV from a B21 on it. Needs to be wired and plumbed.
(wired into the ignition circuit - I think I used the wiper circuit.)
