The weather a little cold this morning?

[zbrown]

i wonder how much life is taken out of engines in this area from the cold weather

cold ass starts and waiting for oil to get to operating temp is not good for anything

I have a block heater and oil pan heater and i don't like to start it when it is balls cold unless it has had those plugged in just for that reason

As soon as it hits freezing mine is plugged in (I only have the block heater though).

I do because i don't change the weight of my oil up, stays 15-40 shaffer's synthetic all year....

If it is below zero and i don't have the oil heater plugged in...... it will start and idle for about 5 seconds..... and then wham .....when the oil pump primes becasue it about kills it....

My power steering seemed fairly frozen today in my Durango and my brake/ABS light popped on for about an hour today then went away. Who knows, but damn it's already -20 right now so should be another great morning.

No problems starting the pickup or the prelude yesterday or today. They sit outside. Just lucky i guess.

From the truck on the trip home (like I mentioned earlier)...

And also showed OC or something, which basically meant out of range...IE wtf are you doing out in this weather?
