when i start my raptor, when the engine is cold it lets out a big backfire and when it does i let go of the starter button and wait just a second push it agine and it fires rite up but it only does after it has been sitting over-night a gotten cold and it only does it the firest time i push the button

i was thinking valves or decompresion release but before i start into it i though i would see if you guys had any idea

I don't think it has anything to do with your decompression release or your valves. Sounds to me that you might be running a little rich and when your starting it up after it's sat for awhile your blowing out unburnt fuel. JMO
