IML: Past Thread About Cold Start Up

["Eric" <gearhead@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

A few weeks ago, there was a thread about hard starting and a loss of fuel 
in the fuel filter of a 60's or 70's Imperial after the car sat for a while. 
After replacing my leaking fuel pump about a month ago, my '64 fires right 
up after just one pump of the pedal to set the choke when cold and improved 
starting in general. I've come to conclude that the fuel smell I would get 
was the fuel siphoning down from the carb, through the filter, and down thru 
the leaking fuel pump. My fuel filter was inexplicably empty after sitting 
for a while, before the fuel pump change as well. It just came to mind that 
this followed the earlier thread so... there it is.
