New year, same car troubles

8 Jan

Remember the car trouble from last year?

My car after the December snowstorm


It’s happening again, even after a new battery and cleaned terminal connectors. The car won’t start, but starts like a charm about 9 minutes later. This time around WM asked me to try and remember how full the gas tank was when it happened.

Turns out, it happens when I have less than a quarter-tank. So maybe there’s some sort of icy/frosty vapor thing going on.

I’m going to make sure I keep at the tank at least half-full at all times and we’ll see where we go from there.
