Re: Cold weather issues?

e-85 suck in the winter. Does not want to fire and when it does i have to sit on the throttle for 5 mins until the coolant temps warm up to about 110 before it idle on it's own

Re: Cold weather issues?

Do the water pump freeze plugs blow out when the car is sitting or running?

WOT, NLTS. The drivetrain is getting a pretty good jolt from power and shifting

You might be looking at suspension arms too by the end of the winter if you keep this up.

My alt belt is squealing like crazy, tightened it up quick so we will see if that fixes it.

Mine too. My tensioner is all the way out, too, so the belt is really stretched and I'm guessing it won't last the winter.

Same here, except it's my power steering belt that's maxed.
Started it up after 2 weeks of being on vacation, and at least one plug is fouled again, going to change them soon.
