I was working at a warehouse on Friday.
There are only a few parking spaces in back there, the rest is overhead doors for semi's. All the spaces were taken, so I just had to park out in the open, my car not sheltered by the others the way penguins huddle together.
Could not get the car to start to save my life. The battery was OK, it turned over, just wouldn't catch.
We put it in neutral and pushed it into the warehouse overnight to warm up.
I came back the next day and put some HEET (alcohol) in the tank. Started right up after that.
Does anyone know if a little E-85 would do the same thing? HEET is just isopropyl alcohol. The "85" in E-85 is Ethanol alcohol.
Would adding just a little E-85 help keep my fuel lines from freezing up?
Hmmm - come to think of it, gasoline in my area already has up to 10% ethanol in it.
Maybe I should start a new thread about this....
