On the 66, you can hear (and count) the normal compression on 7 cylinders and one "easy" cylinder,which usually indicates a valve issue,(stuck open or burnt).If it is an intake valve, it will make a hissing with the air cleaner off.Intake valve issues push compression back into the manifold,reducing the needed vacuum,making hard starts in cold more noticeable than an exhaust valve leak will.

The best way to start a super beetle with an auto choke is to press the gas once to activate the choke and if it doesn't fire up after a few cranks put the gas to the floor and crank the engine, that's how you start them when there flooded.
I don't know what it is but I love the way the old starters sound. It's probably from listening to my dad start his old 77 Pontiac Grand Prix on cold days when I was still a kid.
Nice cold starts and three fails. Keep up the good work.Charge the 66's battery and the vw battery and get them started. Do another cold start on them.
When my mother lived in Connecticut, her family used a block heater to make the car easier to start in cold weather conditions. I don't know if that would be worthwhile because I don't know what type of climate you have where you live.
+Sean Capps 55- 57 chevy. The next couple years 58-59 looked very much like it from the side and in this video I didn't notice a view of the nose so I cant be certain. They call this the "cab forward" design. I'm no expert in this series. My specialty is 1967-72. My first truck was a 68 and I've loved them ever since
For some reason I thought the Travellall was long gone. The most successful cold starts I get are using a big Holley carb. Those can sit awhile and start easy.
what's the deal with the step side it sounded awesome plus another way to help on cold starts is to hold the gas to the floor as its cranking over (carbed engines) and once it starts let off that's what I do on my 86 C10 and third the ones that didn't start where due to dead battery that's it
Great video! Wow, In Minnesota where I am at nothing would have started at 20 below last week. 20 above is easy starting weather for us. I have only one ATV out of four that won't start under 35 above and it better be sitting in the sun. I had a 86 K30 with a 454 that would start even at 20 below. My wussy everyday cars sit inside a garage at 60 degrees. If I leave them outside over night in 20 below you would have thought I was trying to kill them the way they sound. I have block heaters in all of them but haven't had to use them...yet.
lol last winter in finland at my place, it was -22F = -30celsius and under it. i had my lada 1200 -79 sitting on yard for over 3 weeks in -25 - -34celsius.. i charged the battery almost full and put the keys in and turned them and wow.. it started in less than 3 seconds!
You could get a float charger installed on your car, just plug it in when you expect it to sit. I use mine even when its just sitting over night. Never have to worry about a dead battery again. Unless you set up your charger wrong, and over cook your battery.
so cold you have to cold start the door handle lol
😂😂
@@ElfamosoValle956 Hello Valley boy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@@ShinerBockGirlz what's up
LMAOOO 😂
cold start the space heater
I should be in bed right now... Instead, I'm watching a video of some good ol' boy starting random shit around his property, and enjoying it.
I love them. my wife always wondering why I watch them
Thank you.

Okay so I've seen comments saying that ford beats Chevy all the way but do they not realize the major difference between a 2000 and a 1950?
Morgan Hill yea people are kinda dumb
Yeah that’s at least a half a century difference between both vehicles

In no way, ever, does a cord beat a Chevy. Or a dodge for that matter

'gotta run the battery down cuz there's always that chance that it'll START! lol
Nice traditional catch phrase, “ le’me work on dat .””
I was smilin the whole time it was awesome watching these ol beauts start
I bet you never say "...have you seen my keys?"
Actually.....I do.
now you've got some batteries to charge lol
Kortt Wulfe
VW and ford
Batteries
Ayy old acc
this video always shows up in my recommended around the time it starts to get cold

Dude you have so many classics love the old school vibe on some of these so cool to watch
Thanks
Thanks for the video sir! Reminds me of living on the farm for several years with my grandpa growing up.
Thanks for watching
@@MrHevyshevygreat video
what were the cars that can't work?@@MrHevyshevy
6:48 beautiful truck and the interior is amazing
Thank you
1965 Chevy C/10 speedometer
Now you have lots of batteries to go charge up so they don't freeze lol!
making us a bunch of dummies!! 😂😂 lol so true
I love how the trucks fuel gage was on empty in 04:16
6:55 dream car right there. beautiful in and out.
I love your truck man!!! Proud owner of a 1972 IH Travelall.
Cool
"I guess we could try the four wheeler"
Oh man, what a great video. Don't know how I got here, but really wished out of the fails, the '66 started. I subbed!
Thank you
Those old chevys brought back alot of good memories thanks man👍
love me some pedal pumping action. i miss the old cars and trucks
You'd hate my old trucks, I never have to pump pedals... ever. 'Cause you shouldn't have to... ever.
I cold start my quad (4 wheeler) all the time also, nice Chevy 3100 pickup
"let it warm up a little"
i wanted to see that firebird at the end start, looks good. You've got a lot of toys there and some kick ass shop space. Looks fun!
That never fails to get me... Vee-Dubble-YUH
I may be a mopar kind of guy. But god damn I love that old chevy truck. it sounds and runs so good!
I don't know what it is but I love the way the old starters sound. It's probably from listening to my dad start his old 77 Pontiac Grand Prix on cold days when I was still a kid.
Yeah I love the sound of the starter on my 78 GMC truck. Sounds much more "manly" than those new starters that are kinda high pitched and quiet
ChillCosmos my 77 Grand Prix starts up every time. She loves the cold
I love the way those old starters sound too!
That classic "jew jew jew jew jew" crank on the German VW. Love it.
Its a beetle dumbass💀
Nice cold starts and three fails. Keep up the good work.Charge the 66's battery and the vw battery and get them started. Do another cold start on them.
the ole cheby springs to life, I have not seen a big foot pedal for years
Those batteries sure are good.
Got enough cars? I think you need some more.
I agree
When my mother lived in Connecticut, her family used a block heater to make the car easier to start in cold weather conditions. I don't know if that would be worthwhile because I don't know what type of climate you have where you live.
Why did you not use starter fluid for these cold starts? :(
Starting fluid is bad
999thenewman starting fluid is engine killing fluid
doing cold starts remain me when I lived in MD. Now I live in AZ. Thanks for the members
I love the interior and weird key areas of old trucks
8:04 I love that dashboard
“Let me work on that..”
Loved them old pickups of the 60s and 70s ! Remember them manual chocks ? Oh well get the starting fluid out !
Pretty nice cold starts there!
Averaging over half successful! Not bad!
at 2:22 gotta love kohler powered equipment....at least I think so Kohlers or most I have seen always start.
Sounds like a Mopar starter in the blue truck.
I feel the cold start pains some days, but then again I'm Older than all them fails together, some days, but I struggles thrus..Stay warm, and safe !!
We built a lot of snow forts and tunnels when we were kids. It was fun. Lil Man havin a good time, makes for good memories.
The grey pick-up at 8:00 sounded sweet.
love the horizontal speedo😍
this guy reminds me of my cousin 10 different keys to 10 different things
I'm in love with that grey truck!
I always find myself rooting for these old cars
Got some sweet rides man
Thanks
MrHevyshevy - Yes you do. Love the old trucks.
MrHevyshevy how man cars an trucks do u have
Especially the generator
Bunch of cool trucks, especially the stepside.
Good way to spend a Saturday!, great vid👌
so do I need a choke in Southern California? ? What we need is water.... Great video, stay safe.
ohio sucks when it gets cold it can go from 35°F to -14°F just in a night
Brad Bailey Wyoming sucks because not only do you get into the negatives but you get 40-50mph winds with it! Lol
Brad Bailey I live in ohio it does get pretty bad!
Mrjoecreeper yes bro! Agreed! Where u at here in WY?
brad i'm originally from jersey and pa..you can keep that 4 letter word up there..i love the south
Legoboy 8018 I bet it's not -18 right now with 38 mph winds lol
"what a beautiful interior" LOLL
Icy Mess! sounds like the welder/genny is the most important one and it started right up :-)
I FINALLY FOUND IT AGAINNNNN AFTER 2 YEARS
Holy shit he still hearts comments
The Ford trucks are troopers in the cold.
+Duramax Rules why cause you can't say the same thing about your Chevy
If you say kid in an argument you basically lose all credibility.
***** Even if what was in my picture WAS a ford, that's still a pretty childish argument. It really is a 1978 GMC pickup
***** Well your original comment was pretty idiotic too...
@Exflamed wow your jealous! Haha your truck came from a company that needed bail out from the government! Haha chevy is pure trash!
Old chevy trucks are addicting I can vouch nice collection that I think 1970? Sure liked to RUN!
Looks like you have more snow than we do here in southern Ontario Canada.. Cool
Try -40 C or (-40F) cranking a engine ...Do they make winter gas in the southern states ...the addition of extra butane?
Please have mrsvyshevy start the entire fleet! Please!
Aw man I wish I could have as many vechicles as you. Must be fun having all them around.
i used these venal patches i found at auto zone on a rip in my seat and its holding up ab 5 years later, not o mention it blends in perfect
What the truck at 6:50 ish sounds amazing and love the look
Sean Capps looks like about a 57 chevy
Chevrolet 3100.
Don't know what year though, sorry :P

28F ain't shit
Yes it is.
Different places have their definition of cold. I measure in C so dunno what 28F is lol
its not uncommon to see negative 28 where im at lol. that aint shit
Joshua Reynolds That is about -4C°
Yea that's pretty cold here in Australia but I love the cold so it wouldn't bother me lol
Love the car collection
Cool cold starts. Little Miss needs to get back to work on her truck! lol I miss seeing that thing. But look who's talkin! haha
+Military Chevy Patience my boy...It's stuck where it is till we get some drier weather
***** Darn. lol I'm a have to come over there an give it some attention. haha
Ford starts right up
2000 vs. 1950. WTF do you think?
Joshua Posey
😂
4:20
Sound like muffled rock n' roll come to think of it.
Finally someone who doesn't rev the crap out of the engine first thing
9:11 Sounds like that alarm noise when someone opens that emergency back door in a K-Mart
Lol
what's the deal with the step side it sounded awesome
plus another way to help on cold starts is to hold the gas to the floor as its cranking over (carbed engines) and once it starts let off that's what I do on my 86 C10
and third the ones that didn't start where due to dead battery that's it
Sounded like it had a massive cam
How come you have so many classic cars I love them! Wish I had all those cars lol
Because I like em
Nobody makes them like they used too! No matter what make!
Great video! Wow, In Minnesota where I am at nothing would have started at 20 below last week. 20 above is easy starting weather for us.

how many cars do you have haha
Maybe 14.
Not enough.
lol last winter in finland at my place, it was -22F = -30celsius and under it. i had my lada 1200 -79 sitting on yard for over 3 weeks in -25 - -34celsius.. i charged the battery almost full and put the keys in and turned them and wow.. it started in less than 3 seconds!

Juu, no mut miksei toimis :D
yksinkertanen toimiva ja kestävä.
ja on myös helvetin lämmin
MrBanaanipommi Jep, siperian mersu
Great videos. Like always. Thank you
damn man quite a few vehicles you got in you're fleet..and some damn good lookin ones at that!
8:17 favorite part
Things failing to start at -4*C is a little bit embarrassing to be honest! Sort it out ;)
Because the VW beetle 1938 and CAT 1966 have a bad battery
Back in the late 80s there was a 66 just like that minus the stack's. That used to cruise the school, same style wheels too.
you can always rely on your LS for a cold start
cold starts.. Pfft! Shit isn't cold! Try living in Minnesnowta
I'm not inclined to try that
Minnesota? Try Canada. Where I live we get -40F sometimes
+Mezz Does Games try in Michigan-20
I'm no genius but I believe -40 is colder than -20, I live in Canada too, I drive diesel and diesels don't like to start here in winter
+Sawyer kehus I drive a Duramax and a TDI Jetta, neither like to start lol
if my cars will sit over the winter i take out the battery and put the battery indoors

Cosmin Capitaneanu what?
He probably doesn't live some place cold enough to know what you mean..
Nice, so many cool old cars!
LOOL, you really gotta start everything : ))) hahahaha cool
what kind of car is the one with the blue dash
International Travelall
tanner fillier hes got some nice cars
dang how many vehicles u got
Hes got 14
that truck at 8:40 just sounds so beautiful I really want one!
You have some beautiful trucks Sir
oh boy 28 ddegrees try -30 to -60 degrees through the winter,nice video though
Yeah it's like that in North Dakota
Why didnt you start the trans am in the garage?
Figured the video was long enough..It starts in the video right after this one.
MrHevyshevy a video can never be long 😉😉
Hey I want to say happy father's day plus I like the cold start videos you made I really enjoy it :-) ? :-)
“That battery’s deader than a door nail!” 😂
