Amazing - I just can't predict the length of threads around here. Just when I think I have it figured out, we get this "black swan" effect. I figured this one for two flames and a lock. H3ll, now we're on page two!

Nothing bad intended - it's just we're so unpredictable. Sometimes OP's are crucified, other times we are civilized. Go figure.

I'm glad you have your answer.

You are in Cali, where it doesn't get all that cold. In the NE where temps hit well below freezing, start ups are harder on the engine, as fluids need to be brought up to operating temps to work properly.
