[QUOTE="Triple obsession, post: 338769, member: 13153"] By turning over do you mean cranking speed with the electric start? If so it wouldn't hurt to check the batt with a volt meter before you try to crank it. If it's not fully charged, (around 12.8 volts) it will crank slower & that can make it hard to start when it's that cold. Also, 2 stroke oils have come a long way in the past 20 years....don't be afraid to mix @ 50:1 using a quality oil. If I told you what ratio I mix some of my stuff at you'd probably crap you pants :lol: Cheers Gary [/QUOTE]
