hey, my wife took my '05 M7 out yesterday to big lake to ride ... was -30 out there. got it back to the house and in garage. started it once, backfired and now it wont start. any suggestions as to what might be wrong..... Thanks Mike
how should she try to get rid of the condensation? I'm on the slope right now and she is tryin to figure out how to fix it. Its not in a heated garage, so its only about 30 degrees in there. She did put about a half a bottle of heet in in today.
Mike, get it in a heated garage for a few hours and I bet it'll start right up. Might have to change the plugs....I had to get mine started by using ether yesterday in the -30 here. It was either that, or drag them in the garage by hand!

finally got her started, was flooded as all hell. got all that gas out, changed plugs and ran her down the road for a few.... all better . thanks for all the input guys. no more riding my sled for the wife when its -30 outside.
It's also not a bad idea to put some HEAT in the tank. Not alot, but it will keep the water/condensation out. It's more of a prevenative for the next time.
ya she does, but now she says she wont ever do it again.... so not worth it and she thought she broke my sled. anyways, i get home on friday hopefully it warms up by the time i get home.
