I gave the Marvel Mystery Oil a try and it seems to have helped. I can now start the engine at 60 F without ether. Thanks for the tip.

I also think that the governor is calling for too much fuel while starting. It makes lots of white smoke and drips raw fuel from the air box drain. I started it while manually controlling the fuel and it starts easier with less fuel. I’m going to replace the governor so I’ll set it correctly then.
