    Great video!
    My ‘68 will run rough on a cold start like this, until the oil gets some heat in it, then she purrs! I recommend a trickle charger 😁
    Love the donuts ... well ... “frosted donuts”!
    God Bless

    Again, the drifting looks amazing, especially in a W108 haha. Last weekend there came some snow here in Holland and I could drift around almost every corner in the neighbourhood ;).

    My '71 280SE wears (4) Nokia Hakkapeliitta's (185 SR14 M+S). Still fun, but I can get up the hill. Good video, Peter.

      Thanks again Walt! The Hakka tires are very good. Mine has old and stiff summer tires. Not much grip at all...

      @@Pexyz When I was 18 I bought a 1955 Buick. When the snow came I would spin around in a parking lot just like you did. It is good to keep the child inside alive.

    Exhaust sounds weird. Remember that batteries give a lower current for cranking on cold weather. You can always try to take them out and let them inside your home o drop some hot water on the terminals if it is still in the car.

    • @Pexyz
      @Pexyz  3 роки тому +1

      Yes batteries suffer in cold weather. This just wasn't as good as I thought. The exhaust is leaking a little, very observant of you! Thanks for watching /Peter

    Great cold weather start! Which oil are you using? I use 20w50 in my M130 and I would not want to start that at such low temperatures! The starter already spins quite slow at 10 degrees celsius.

      Hi, I think I had a 5w-40 in the engine at the time for this start-up 👍😀

    My W115 220 petrol really struggles to turn on when its cold, around 15 Celsius and below, what should i check and do to make it start better?

    • @Pexyz

      Hi Rami and thanks for watching! Maybe you should check the automatic choke. Nice car you have there, the W115 220.
