Well Dan this morning was about 29 degrees and my BGT started
right up - she sits in an unheated barn overnight - however tonight
when I got to the park and ride the temp had dropped to about 14 degrees
and I had a little bit of trouble starting her. But she did start
and after letting her warm up a bit had no further problems on the
drive home.
