They arent too hard to start in the coldest conditions as long as the glows are working ok and the timer unit functions correctly (which it often doesnt) whats your issue ? .. apart from -25 .. and also welcome BTW

It's not the starting. It will start okay. But if you start wery cold engine, it's better that you warm it before. In Finland we have long and cold winter.
