Starting

Could try this ,


Cold weather crank no start

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Okay i know theres a few people that are having this problem, mines not the battery. The car isnt starting in the cold till after a few minutes of me trying. Today i actually had to roll my car down the driveway into the sun and sit for a min and then it started. I tried to pop the clutch, put it wouldnt even budge. I dont have a heated spot to store the car, so does anyone know of a universal block heater, or how much the subaru heater is? Any tips? I have a few mods UP thats angled wrong, ACT flywheel, downpipe

The OEM block heater is about $25. Here's a link for an '04 http://www.subaruparts.com/catalog/?section=428
