Greetings folks
The recent cold weather in OH, caused the Metro to end up in the garage. After 2000 miles on the rebuild :disappoin Anywhoooo
I noticed during the testing for the cold start problem that the #3 spark plug is running hot!! This being the same sympton which led to the rebuild in the first place (burned exhuast in #3)
I am thinking of disconnecting the EGR valve, what do you folks think?

I made that mistake once. #3 exhaust valve lasted 2 weeks, and burnt up. I'd go down the new EGR route first.
