Tips for Cold Mornings From Chicago Motor Club
The Chicago Motor Club offers start up advice for cold mornings. Push the gas to the floor then release halfway, avoid starting a flooded engine, and allow 30 to 45 seconds between tries. Warm the engine at idle and do not race a cold engine. Ensure the battery is charged and maintained with hydrometer checks and terminal cleaning for best winter performance.
