There is no cold start valve on an '84 waterboxer.   The cold start
enrichment is provided by the coolant temperature sensor.  Also there is an
auxilliary air regulator fitted below the air intake bellows which increases
the amount of air entering the engine when it is cold, to increase the idle.

Do your plugs get wet with fuel when you crank it a lot ?
