It was 36*F at 6am. My battery was low. Very slow cold start and a stall starting from 1st then a slower start and I hit the brakes asked for lights and vacuum and I got another stall. I grabbed my jumpstart battery and a wheel chock and key started again.

I let it idle and my water temp was 100*F and intake air temp was 86*F under 5 minutes. That is awesome.

Hopefully extreme EOC P&G with the heater on Max will be enough to keep it cool.

I have a strong lead for a forklift job 52 miles away. I would like to make it under 1 gallon. Im thinking a boattail would do the trick#!
