Got it fired over, took it out and warmed it up good.

Could hear the valve train/lifters rattling/knocking away because the oil was so thick and not working the top.

So cold the ballasts on the garage lights don't work.
Had to help the garage door down.
Least it came down. :o

+24 here this evening, and I got the lock plunger to raise on the RF door!  Hopped into the passenger seat, hit the key, and Darth Car fired right up!  Cleared off all of the snow, and then shut it all down for another day.  I might have even tried the Captain's door trick; but I'm not telling in case the M thieves are listening. :umm:

-23C is mild compaired to yesterday. :doh:
Car started no problem, but man that valve train rattles until I get some warm oil up top, then it's all quiet.
Never had a problem with 5W-30

So cold yesterday, I got frost burn on my thumb and index finger from the car key, trying to start it.

Holding around 34°F today and cloudy
Given what we've been getting up here the past while I'll take anything above freezing.
Good day for napping and getting over this miserable cold someone was nice enough to share with me.   :hmm:

Captain, have the polar bears taken off their fur coats yet, and slipped into their bikinis?

A couple more degrees and I'll have to shear their coats.
