Starting is such sweet sorrow

["freakybeetle" <freakybeetle@xxxx>]

I have spent the last few weeks getting my DMC tuned up after years 
of not being driven. The car gets better every time I work on it, but 
there is still something that I haven't been able to work out. The 
car is almost impossible to get started with out using starting 
fluid. It has a new fuel pump, fuel filter, and cold start valve. I 
doesn't matter if the engine has been sitting for days or immediate 
turned over after turning it off, the car just won't fire by itself. 
It also has new plugs, plug wires, distributor, rotor, and the rest 
of a normal tune up kit. I have tried bypassing the thermo sensor 
that controls when the cold start fires, but still no luck. Any ideas 
or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. I would really like to 
take the car to the SEDOC cruise in this month. 

Thanks,
