Your not suposed to go down jet sizes in the winter, your suposed to go up. The colder it gets it will run a little lmore lean, so you need the bigger jet to give it more fuel. Also if you feel like taking the carb off, you can always replace your stock pilot jet with a #42 pilot jet so it starts easier.
