How well does your Cub start in the cold?

[poellot]

It doesnt matter the temp if mine as been sitting for weeks, i need to turn on fuel, choke, crank about 3 seconds. Wait 15 to 30 seconds. Then fires right up. Even below 0.
It seems like my carb looses its fuel sitting. Its a new pump and no gas in oil.
I think cranking gets the pump pushing some then gravity continues to fill the bowl. Fires right up easy once its got fuel. The hydro sounds angry at me when its that cold. Lol
I cleaned the carb but did not rebuild it. Only thing i can think is a ver small at the bottom of the bowl making it loose it when sitting. But not fast enough to ever see it wet.

This thread is 3 years old, but i'll play along.

My 2 main Cubs, 106 and 107 both have little trouble in the cold The 107's battery often loses charge in the cold, so it needs a charge before startup. Once charged she has little trouble, no more than 10-12 revolutions with some choke.

Meanwhile, my 106 has to have the tightest electical system a Cub Can have! I have not once touched the battery in the thing since I bought it. Always fires right up, even if it's 10 degrees or less. Never had to charge the battery, it even shows a charge on the ammeter even when shut off!

Then, there's the Original. Don't use it much in the cold, but provided the battery is charged, it'll fire up pretty easily with some choke.
