I'm out to the farm today to fit a new alternator to my friends Nissan Patrol. Hopefully, that will fix it, as I don't want to be out to long in this cold weather. And before anyone mentions they have a metre of snow. I'm not geared up for it.

It really is a crap tensioner. It's cast alloy, and looking to break, as soon as you look at it! |

-20, hahaha. Most I've seen is -12. Not in my 2cv though, old Mercedes with a heated floor and doors and wow is that car cosy in winter. Jasu, I've been looking online to see if I can find out if my oil weight is the cause of this. I'm going to change it back to 10x40 today if I get time before work. But you'll be the person to know this. What oil weight do you use there in winter in your elderly Citroëns? |
