Cold natured
Trying to figure out how, to start my 69 vette in the morning when its cold without flooding or running the battery down. When i first get in it, how many times should i pat the gas pedal? It has an electric choke thats controlled by the gas peddle..

In theory you should only have to pump it once, but that's rarely the case.
Mine doesn't have a choke, so I start cranking it first, then start pumping until it starts. Usually 3-4 seconds.
