Jason...you need to come to the coast where the air is
very humid. Any cool,
or cold , weather will cause carb icing in this
area. One of those heated
air systems is necessary, if you drive your
carbureted-engined car in the
winter.

Subject: RE: Poly 318 heat riser / cold starts?
Who would
even need such a thing? If it was a daily driver and you lived in
a
northern state given to fits of sever cold id say ok but I don’t need that
on my vehicles and I start and run my cars during the winter if its nice
ill
drive them around otherwise I just let them hi idle till they are
warm.
Usually I have to move equipment around in my barn so they get
started an
ran every so often . as I live in northern
Indiana we get plenty of cold
wet weather. Only ever had my plow truck
carb ice up . so I cut off a 5 gal
bucket short so the hood would
close and force air to come up around the
intake.. that was a 2 fold fix
it also kept the aircleaner from plugging up
with snow as I was busting
drifts 4-6' hi to try and get from our farm to my
house. That was
the only time ive had icing issues.

Subject: Poly 318 heat riser / cold
starts?
1970 LA 318 engines had a system of heat riser, choke, heated
air intake
including the heat stove and air cleaner to allow quick
starting in cold
temperatures and to prevent carb icing.
What about
the '62-'65 Poly? It a simpler approach with a choke and exhaust
manifold
heat riser. By now the exhaust manifold heat riser spring has
probably
deteriorated or broke and the valve rusted stuck. Heat Riser
Repair
Kits are over $200 for NOS.
Any tips about an aftermarket or DIY
substitute for the exhaust manifold
heat riser?
Thanks,
Gary
