    What have you done to your CUCV today/lately - Part 2

    Right before the cold hit, I was able to get the last of the stencils on as part of the new paint job.

    CUCV Cold Weather Start Experince

    If you didn't put in any anti-gel additive when you fueled up, I wonder if it was so cold it immediately gelled-up... I really don't know why it would not re-start otherwise, especially since the engine would likely have been warmed up.

    CUCV Cold Weather Start Experince

    I have 1000+ cold crank amp batteries and my M1009 sets outside. It was -14 this morning here in Ohio, and she would not crank over fast enough to start. But, at about 0 degrees F, she does start up. I run anti-gel/lubricating additive, and have not yet had an issue with gelled fuel this season.

    Windshield Wiper Same Speed

    The linkage on mine was pretty gummed up with sand and dirt at the time I swapped out my failing wiper motor for a new one. I used Lithium grease on all the joints in the linkage and the wipers work like new now with the new motor. I suspect this is the issue you're seeing.
