Crazy Things That Happen in Cold Weather
Well, we've had our first bought of cold weather here (-30C), and it's the first winter I've had to drive my truck daily. Mind you, I only go about 5 minutes from my house, park and get on a bus into the city.
Well, the other day on my drive home, I had a 1/2 block stretch where my power brakes quit, then resumed. I thought that was quite interesting. Then the next morning, my thermostat stuck closed. Seemed to work normally on the drive home, and since, too, although I'll be replacing it on the weekend. Thank goodness for block heaters and chinooks, the weather will be nice enough to work in the unheated garage and get that thermostat fixed. Besides the square tires, and other odds and ends, does anyone else have any quirks that appear when the weather drops down?
