I'd love to run the coast highway too, if all the knuckleheads got off and let this knucklehead have it too himself!

BTW, gonna pull of the exh pipe and look up into the manifold to see if the heat riser is stuck open or closed.
Well, you don't need to pull the pipe to do that just to see if its stuck. Look at the heat riser counter weight on the outside of the mainiflold and try to turn it. Its prolly frozen in place but with luck its frozen open half way or more. To see how much open or closed, yeah, might have to pull the pipe. If so, might as well have new studs/packing and brass nuts handy.

Personnally, I like it when they are stuck open...no worries ever cause it don't get cold enough to freeze up a carb here in Gods Country!
