Above freezing: Turn key to glow. wait for light to go out+15 sec. Turn key to start. Hold key in start until engine fires regularly. (Release key) Below freezing: Turn key to glow. wait for light to go out. wait 15 more sec (depress accelerator fully here). Turn key to start. Hold key in start until engine fires regularly. (Release key) slowly back off accelerator. It makes a BIG difference in cold starting. Pressing the accelerator while the engine is spinning is VERY different than while the engine is dead still. I have used this procedure on a dead cold engine (overnight sit with morning temp of 14F) without plugging it in, without problem. I didn't bother with the cord last winter, and this winter... well in baltimore, daffodils are coming up. -j. _______________________________________ http://www.okiebenz.com For new parts see official list sponsor: http://www.buymbparts.com/ For used parts email [EMAIL PROTECTED] To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com
