Um... Jody? -45'C is a lot colder than -20F... it's -49'F.  And I've been
there, done that... anything less than about -25'C (-13'F) is just too damn
cold.... that's when the oil in your car has turned into Liquid Nails....
i.e. Fuck That. :)

On that note, I am getting ready to do another oil change... I'm currently
runnig Mobil One 10W30... is this gonna be allright for a PA Winter?  I am
expecting the lowest temps to be around 15'F (-10'C), and the car will be
garaged just about all the time.  This oil should be okay, right?
	
Hey, and thanx everyone for the compliments on my web page... I have a few
fixes in the works... I will post again when I'z done. :)
