OnMy 1995 reg Peugeot is a great runner and starter, but these last two winters I am having a problem starting. If the temp falls below 40f I have to tread very carefully. At present I am resorting to switching on the plug heater at least six times and then it just about picks up with a cloud of blue smoke issueing. I expect I shall have to get some new hot plugs, but does anyone know of any ways that I can coax it until the spring. Once started I have no more problems all day. As I am getting on a bit I don't use the car so often now. Joe. Whitstable UK Received on Tue Dec 18 06:42:00 2007
