i drive my truck with size 13 work boots each day.. lol.. i did not need to block off the rad on my truck i get Real good heat in less then 5 min. i went to start my truck the other day and it did not want to start... (it was maybe -8 outside...) i had to "pump" the gas a Lot for it to start. then it die on me the when i was driveing it.. then started right back up... so then i parked it at home and now it will not start at all.... looks like the fuel pump or carb is messing up! DAM!
with the really nice weather during the day and then the sudden freeze overnight and of course now, right back to -43 ... luv winnipeg in the winter you may want to try gasline antifreeze Since you keep yours outside that freeze that freeze thaw, can cause a lot of condensation course you will probably have to drag it in to the garage to warm up 1st
ya i know! stupid winter weather. my mini van is leaking antifreeze now to and so now im hesitant to even plug it in its so bad. I literally have to top it up by taking the rad cap off and pour in half a bottle of antifreeze!
