Mike, Michigan Winter may not be Maine exactly but we have had some extremely cold weather lately - well off and on. So that is exactly what I was experiencing - when it was really cold it ran terrible - would start running real rich, loss of power. I'd turn the key on and off to reset the ECU and it would backfire and then run ok for a few minutes. However, when it warmed up outside it would run well or I'd have less of a problem with it. Made sense to me that over cooling could cause poor running but I wasn't sure. The ride into work today was enjoyable - lots of heat and no running problems. -- Thanks, Jeff '90 Carat (Grover) '86 (We call this one Parts) '78 Bus (Melissa) Patty's Bus |
