Re: Cold weather issues?

My brake booster was having issues in the -15 weather the other night. When the car was running, the brakes were hard to press like if the car was off. After warming it up, it was good though. Turned over super slowly, but still started up like a champ.

same problem with the brakes I noticed when I started it up to move it, only took one crank but it sounded like crap, but my brakes were frozen so they did not want to move....I actually have places to go today so hopefully she will be good to me.

Sounds about right. My belts also scream more than normal when I start it.

It's always been 1-2 seconds of cranking to start, and even in this weather, it's no exception. They're just reeaaaaallllly reeaaaaallllly sloooooooooooooooooooooooow cranks.
