Probably could have got it to fire if I'd been boosting it to get it rolling a little faster/longer, but the battery started to Peter out after 20 seconds of cranking, at Minus 28 Celsius. It started to fire after 15 seconds of cranking, but couldn't build heat fast enough in the combustion chambers. This is also with 5w40 snythetic, an almost new starter, and brand new 860 CCA battery fully charged at room temp before attempting morning start. Just . Bloody. Cold. Get spinning fast/long enough they'll build their own heat and fire without intake heater assistance. If it wasn't parked on the street it'd be plugged in and it wouldn't be an issue lol. It'd probably fire right up today being at least 15 degrees warmer out. Lot warmer than being the 6th coldest place on the planet less than 2 weeks ago lol.
