I'm sure this had been discussed before but I'm blown away right now. I went on vacation for 2 weeks and just came back. The maxima gets kept outside since my parents cars get kept in the 2 car garage . So I go outisde to take it for a drive and its got 2 or so feet of snow on it and then a thick sheet of ice on it underneath the snow. So I get it somewhat cleaned off and I go to start it and it starts perfectly like its brand new. I was expecting for it to take a couple of starts and be a pain in the *** but it wasn't. I'm sure you guys are probably tired of these threads but I'm just amazed right now.. Its a 98 btw. Anyone else have any stories like this?

 

The only time it was hard to start was if I had less than 1/4 tank gas, and left it sitting for a few days. Low fuel pressure I guess? It'd take 2 secs of cranking instead of less than 1.

But then again, I've had to change so many things on this, it better start right up! New battery, new alternator, high flow intake, new coilpacks, new sparks, crank and camshaft position sensors, etc.
