So I went to the hockey game last night and came out after a win in overtime and my car wouldn't start. We got out the cables, hooked them up to my friends truck gave it a go. The battery was getting plenty of cranking power but the engine just wouldn't turn over. So I get out to see if the kid hooked the cables up right. They were fine on the truck but he hooked black to red on my car. At this point my brand new cables are smoking and the ends are red hot. After giving the guy an earful I got the cables hooked up right. Still got no turn over. My guess is the gas lines froze. Like I said, there was plenty of cranking power with the brand new battery but still no turn over. Had a full tank of gas cause I know it gets cold up here. When I went out to get it today it started right up. Actual Low was -12 plus whatever windchill was.
