Woke up at Bus Brr this morning to a 84 Westy that wouldn't crank. Not one bit. Twas quite cold over night. About -3 degrees F. Didn't use anything much. Just the light a bit before bed time and had the cell phone plugged into the lighter socket for a recharge. My battery is about 2.5 years old. Put the charger on it for an hour, no help and jumper cables didn't help either. Got it started with a push but I'm wondering what I can do to improve cold starting. -- Brien K Dews CC-AWCI www.busesbythebeach.com 84 Wolfsburg Westfalia 89 Vanagon 'Bluestar' 74 Westfalia |
