Re: [VintageLambo] Re: Cold weather starting...

Hi Fred, No, not standard, a modification by previous owner - apparently the car had an electronic module of some description prior to the current set up and the PO says the current setup is the best yet for this motor I"ve had no problems with it since I got the car. I do have a bit of difficulty starting a hot engine, and some times it seems the engine only fires AFTER I stop cranking, but the engine is still rotating, which would be when the ballast system cuts back in - maybe too much voltage/spark for a hot engine - I"ve never really considered it before.....
