When we lived in the Black Forest north of Colorado Springs, it was -24F one day. I DID get the '72 220D with series plugs started, but found that after driving a couple miles or so, the engine would stop. If I waited a few minutes, I could re-start it and drive some more. I decided that wasn't a good way to go to work (not to mention starting it at the end of the day) and turned around and went home. My theory at the time was that the COLD air chilled the cylinder walls, causing it to stop and waiting awhile allowed the rest of the engine (which was warmed up) to heat them back up.
