Hi all!!! I have what might be a dumb question but I'm gonna ask it anyway. Here in the northeast we have been having a tough winter with plenty of nights that the temp has dipped into the single digits and lower. My question is--my 01 Sport cranks so slow on these days that I think it might not start--but on the second turn it kicks over. I checked the battery and it is fully charged. In addition I should mention that this doesnt happen the rest of the day.Only after sitting overnight in the cold. I have a theory ---should I switch to a lighter weight oil?? I have added slick 50 and it seems to have helped a little. I was told that on these cold days that it could just be the viscosity of the oil getting thicker, but it sure doesnt sound like that in the morning. I'm afraid that it will kill the battery one of these times. Any input would be appreciated.---Thanks
