We only had -5 for a high temp today. Even with a block heater on it, my Bobcat couldn’t start, so we have the battery charger going on it for 4 hours. I won’t try it again until Saturday. The wind is bad, seems worse, probably the back side of the low causing higher winds. Having a long driveway is great except for during snowstorms. We can’t get to the mailbox today. We just saw a delivery truck park at the road, see the drifted driveway, and move on to other deliveries. It is a white out now, looking out our sunroom windows. Brutal. 🥶

Have a Merry Christmas!
🎄

Get a Katz magnetic heater and clap it on the oil pan, right under the sump (or a Hibachi or cast iron skillet with briquets) AND the block heater. That oil has to be able to flow.
