Thumbs up

I would first make sure the ignition is in order, and then go into the fuel system of the car. With the ignition switch on, check under the car at the fuel tank and make certain the fuel pump is running. You should be able to hear it as well as feel it running. Next check for fuel delivery at the cold start valve on the air intake horn. There is a small plug (7mm) I believe that you can just loosen while the pump is running, you should get some fuel from this plug. Next take a jumper wire from the hot side of the battery and energize the wire on the cold start valve by just touching the wire intermittantly and listning. You should be able to hear the valve click. If you can see fuel from the afore mentioned plug, and can hear the valve work, go ahead and try just clicking the valve a couple of times. Now try and start the engine. If it fires right up you are on the right track. Try this first before going further into problem. And by the way cold start valves in good operating condition are necessary in California.
