..yesterday monring at something below -20*C (-4*F) without too many complaints. Only problem is operating the key with mitts on. Actually it's that the ignition is a little sticky when cold. But boy-o-boy that Redline works like a doo-be-dang in these temperatures. Compared to my 98 Golf (whose gearshift barely can be moved!!) This morning it's -30*C (-22*F). I don't think I'll try starting it for a bit. Along those lines, anyone used a Coleman Black Cat as a block heater? ;-) K-K-K-Keith Ada-ada-ada-adams C-C-C-C-Calgary, Alberrrrta, Canadddda 1986 Vanagon GL Westfalia "Roxy" (frozen stiff) |
