Greetings from the great frozen North. The temps here in Minnesota decided
to pop above freezing and Spring Fever set in. However, after way too much
time cranking the '79 Midget, with no fire, the fever began to wain. I
pulled a plug and it was dry as a bone. The car sits all winter with fuel
stabilizer and no battery. The trick is how to start it in the Spring. With
my old FIAT X1/9 I could just take off the air cleaner and pour a little
gas or starter fluid down the carb. How do you do that with these critters?
Do you pull a spark plug and squirt gas in the cylinder? I sure could use
some advice. In the winter, should I leave the gas and battery alone and
just go out and start it regularly? The garage is not heated.

Michael
