Hello
I've been reading about starting diesels in the winter and read that the battery loses some of it's power in cold weather. Is it worth making something like a cover to put over the battery overnight if the car is parked outside ?
Are there any other ideas to keep the engine from getting too cold if it's left outside overnight ?
I have also found that with my 306 diesel it helps if I floor the accelerator pedal before I turn the ignition key........don't know why,in my previous diesel my foot wasn't on the pedal at all.
Thanks.
