Our temp got up to a tropical +25F this afternoon with sunshine and blue skies so I put on my leather sandals, Bermuda shorts, Jimmy Buffet Hawaiian shirt then when out to plow some snow.
Point of the Post: The 300U was reluctant to start so I decided to try something I read on the forum. Someone posted that in cold weather he always turns on the ignition 5 minutes before attempting a start to give the wires a chance to “heat up”. I didn’t really understand how that would help but it had intrigued me. I turned on the ignition and went about opening the barn doors and things. I came back about 5 minutes later, hit the starter and she fired off instantly. It might have just been a coincidence or “heating the wires” might have worked. I am going to try it another time that’s for sure.
