Ok I can finally confirm removing the oil cap does make a difference. It got cold last night car did the usual" try to start try to start I'm dead issue" removed the oil cap it fired right up. So barry you win the prize about requiring more research !!

yes I have confirmed even with an open vent tube it will make a difference removing the oil cap. just one more Item for us low compression members to try in cold weather.

Getting off of the soap box now .
