As I understand it, Lithium batteries do not like being cold. I have even read that it's a good idea to load them for a while to warm them up...
Bet it's still much better than the recommended lawnmower stuff
Totally agree, just flagged up what he said about the effect of extreme cold on oil. Shouldn't be a problem for me in Devon though
That's a shame, that's probably the tricky bit, that and where to position the reservoirs. Any pics??
Why do they have to be radial? Is it not possible to simply convert the existing ones then, by removing the integral reservoirs and replacing...
I said even synthetic oil... Herewith the article where I read this. It doesn't give figures for how cold oil has to be before being thickened...
Exactly but also, according to my reading from those more knowledgeable, even fully synthetic oil is permanently thickened by exposure to very...
need to buy the heater as well of course but they're not too dear
How long are you reckoning for a winter? I'd probably only do Dec, Jan and Feb.
Oh I see, hammer-Hammerite... Sorry, took you literally because I have used smooth silver hammerite, stippled on with a brush, to touch in the...
Over the course of last winter, I replace all the fasteners I easily and practically could, with stainless and even some titanium. I used marine...
Just keep a small green house heater, 60 watt? under the sump, perhaps. I've read that allowing the oil to get really cold permanently thickens...
Nice, how about a 'how to' article on fitting them in place of standard 749/999 reservoirs??
With their own aluminium primer, just straight on the casings or what?
I've had no such problem. Must have been replaced by the other owner...
Thanks for that. Obviously the alternator has to output to the battery via the regulator/rectifier but where this connector is located along the...
Whereabouts is the connector, if it's subject to water ingress from washing and riding? I'm confused, Air Con Technical's answer seemed to imply...
Great response! Interesting that the first sign would be weak battery and starting. Presumably though, it wouldn't apply to a battery charged by...
How strange...
