Lustalbert Posted December 22, 2008 Report Share Posted December 22, 2008 Had a cummins 400 in one of our M916s that was a slow starter below freezing. When you would cank it, nothing but smoke, but it would start eventually. Once it started to smoke alot, keep the pedal mashed, let off the starter, and it would run at about 200 RPM for a few minutes then start picking up speed and idle on its own. The entire motor pool was a giant haze for about 30 minutes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zeitgeist57 Posted December 24, 2008 Report Share Posted December 24, 2008 My 6.2L Silverado didn't start yesterday morning either in a cold temp of 5*. Ended up borrowing a neighbor's car for the day. However, in a balmy 17*, it started up fine today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
