A 50/50 mix freezes at -37 degrees F. and boils without pressure applied at about 220 degrees. If it gets colder (or hotter) than that in Tennessee, I'm moving to Tahiti!
You might be experiencing "hot soak" where the fuel in the float bowl boils and percolates into the intake, causing a flooded condition. Try holding the throttle wide open and cranking until the engine starts to clear the flood. Jerry
