lol windchill has nothing to do with real temperature, wind doesnt actually lower the temp, it just makes it "feel" colder. It would cool the engine off faster though.
ENGINE STARTED!!! hail.gif tongue.gif
Warm fully charged battery did it.
There were 2 attempts (about 10 seconds each). During first try there were some individual sparks.
During second try engine almost started so I cranked engine by starter for couple of seconds till it started to work on it's own.
First couple of minutes it was hard for engine to turn the tranny (on neutral) so I had to push the clutch.

LOL Whatever. The "WIND" chill is what would freeze and crack the radiators, I saw it happen too much. -28 degrees with a windchill of -70. -28 is still lower than -13.

LOL, ...Wind DOES lower temperature.
Ever hear of an invention called a "fan"? I heard it cools the air using "WIND" power.
Call me crazy if you will, ... oh and I heard the earth is "round" as well. ;P

Yes, it does!
You know how to cool down bottle with watter in the car???
You put a wet towel around the bottle and put the bottle in the open window (when driving on high speed).
