Ken.

Phil could probably tell you more, but for expedience I suggest you check
the thermo time switch. On the 4KCSQ, it is at the back of the head (you can
follow the wires from the cold start valve to find it). This switch
completes the circuit that activates the cold start valve.

HTH and Happy New Year,
