No.

It always has turned over. and the KK is really quick on heating up. So, I never saw the point.

that's good to know, i'm lookin through remote starts from that astroflex site and the stylintrucks site, i don't need anything fancy, 400 feet would be well in range to start from the living room or upstairs

i've always found the remote start as a tempting option.. but i know i'd forget to take my KJ out of gear and it would end up finding me in the house instead of me finding it nice and warm. but for an auto.. get one for sure!

as those astroflex starts read for the manuals, it won't start if it's in gear
but on the other hand, i hate leaving a manual out of gear when parking so either way, i think im with you on the starter for a manual heheh
