    Cold Weather Starting Tricks ?

    Cold Weather Starting Tricks ?

    My SEE is currently buried under a pile of early season snow and it usually sits there all winter until spring. Normally it starts instantly but in cold conditions or in the spring it really does not like to. One of the casualties of the mouse repairs was the ether can on the firewall no longer...
