Anyone from the colder climates have any problems with their supercharged cars? Last week the temp dropped into the low 40's here and my car wont start very well and misses at idle until it warms up. After that it's smooth as silk full power etc. Any thoughts? (series II supercharged)

Mine took a dump on me this afternoon. It sat for about a 1.5 hours in the sun (~65 degrees). went to start her and she wouldn't start. After a few attempts she finally turned over and left quite the significant amount of smoke. The Lightnings would do the same thing. Go figure.

I need to check if I'm pulling oil up into the intake. If so, just an easy fix.
