If it doesn't get below 30 it doesn't count as winter.

0-20 degrees is when marginal engines have issues. Any failure to start above that indicates:
Extremly poor compression, like its Ebay time.
Poor mechanical shape, or some sort of non compression related problem.

I did not notice significant drag using 15w40 dino oil until about 20 degrees.
