Want me to send you an ice cube come July to remind you? BillR -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of R A Bennell Sent: Monday, February 05, 2007 4:37 PM To: Mercedes Discussion List Subject: [MBZ] COLD!
I am glad I don't try to run my old diesel here in the winter. It was minus 39 here last night and the high yesterday was minus 27. We have been in the deep freeze for days and it appears there is no immediate end in sight. Gas powered cars with fuel injection seem willing to start no matter what even without being plugged in. One of our F150's needed the block heater cord end replaced yesterday. My younger son Thomas commented that it had been cranking slow the last few days. I checked and it was not working at all. Cut the cord end off and put a new one on. Works now. Cord didn't look too good however so will replace the whole thing once the weather warms up - IE - I hope I remember to do it before next winter because of course, once it warms up, we won't need it and often then forget to do it until it is once again real cold out.
