As you should and have. Most of us living in the lower 48 don't need such measures. I certainly never had to fiddle with fuel in my diesels.

Convertibles seem to sell well here in Minnesota, and we only get a week or two of nice weather in the spring and then another week or two again in the fall. -- Grant Edwards grante Yow!

Actually, he didn't do that bad a job, but he was lucky to be in charge while the state was running a budget surplus -- that cuts down on the number of unpleasant decisions that have to be made. -- Grant Edwards grante Yow!

Black NC is staying in the garage till later this evening when it cools down a bit. Funny thing is, I fly out to San Fran in a couple of days then doing the drive from there to Vancouver up the Oregon coast.....should be a nice change in climate BUT don't I wish I had the MX5 and not the Pontiac G6 that I needed to rent.

Naw, this time of the year, you would be better off in the G6. It is
fog and 44 deg's F here in Seattle today. The roads will be wet and not too much fun for a MX-5. Bruce Bing '03 LS |

I think the high yesterday or the day before was -8F. But, people in from the northern part of the state really have something to complain about with temperatures as low as -40F during the past couple days. So far the Miata has started right up every time... -- Grant Edwards grante Yow! I don't understand at the HUMOUR of the THREE visi.com STOOGES!! |

I've been in Rochester, Minnesota at similar temperatures in winter and at 101F in summer. That seems to me to be an extreme range! -- XS11E, Killing all posts from Google Groups The Usenet Improvement Project: http://improve-usenet.org |
