CAT INTERCEPTOR posted:The concept of it being -10C and completely clear just fucks with my brain. Especially at midday. I've only ever been in -10C once and gently caress that poo poo. That's the midwest. The clear days, and especially the clear nights are the bad ones. Means there's nothing to keep the heat in, so the sunlight just bounces off the snow and all the day's heat bleeds off into the sky. It gets colder than a witch's tit in a brass bra.

It's almost as though people in different climates adapt physically to those climates! Like it's not actually just about being "tough" or whatever, it's your body actually changing how it manages blood flow and making metabolic changes to improve performance and comfort within different temperature ranges.

Liquid Communism posted:That's the midwest. Midwest winters suck. As a kid, we had a two week period where the temperature didn't get above 0-F. Highs, if I remember correctly, hit -2 one day. I had to deliver newspapers in -40 (the one place where C and F are the same) weather with windchills nearing -70. You'd learn to hate starry nights in the winter because they invariably suck. Stay warm, dammit, and fire up that engine!

Do you have a block heater on that fucker? I assume it wouldn't hurt to have warmer oil when you're trying to start it.

We have spark and injector pulse while cranking yet no fire. Its either bad gas or spark plugs wildly out of order.

I'd wager bad gas. Did you put some fresh stuff in? Cause that stuff in the tank has been sitting exposed for what, like 4 or 5 weeks now?

I was more concerned about moisture/dirt/bugs getting the gas since it was being stored in an open container
|
# ? Dec 8, 2016 23:56 |

It does when its sat open in a field through multiple snow storms. I tried putting fresh gas in but I'm gonna drain what's in there and put more in and recheck plug order

Got any ether/starting fluid? I'm sure a blast down its throat won't hurt.

Starting fluid is an iffy bet. If the timing is way off or plugs are out of order, it could blow the intake off. It might not hurt, however, just a dab 'll do ya.

Plug wires have gotta be out of order or the dizzy is clocked weird.

Have you moved the dissy position since it was last running?sharkytm posted:Starting fluid is an iffy bet. If the timing is way off or plugs are out of order, it could blow the intake off. Just loosen some of the jubilee clips on the intake pipework and then give it some starting fluid. If it pops back it will just blow the pipework apart at the loose joint (or just take the intake pipe off and just let it run open briefly) Before my land rover would start on petrol for the first time I had to kick it over it on starter fluid a few times before it seemed like the injectors managed to get themselves firing properly and free of any airlocks enough to fire.
