It’s been a few months since I’ve driven mine and today I had to move it.
Naturally the battery was dead so I quickly swapped in a different smaller battery from a different car. (Only 600 cca)

Surprise, surprise it started right up without any hesitation.

So I didn’t just move it, I took for an enjoyable 4 mile drive to get it all warmed up. It ran perfectly.

Pleasantly surprised.

Pleasant surprises are good!

What was the air temp down there? Not too low I assume in FL?

Hey Flash nice to hear your CRD purred right up after a nice break, and drove good to boot...
I just took mine out (after a nice break) for about a 15-16 mile drive after a new head, head gasket, glow plugs, second timing belt... etc... she drove nice too....

@krb I’m in Florida temp here now is about 73, I’m a little further south though.
