great u are one of the people that think a car should work the same in the cold as in the heat. now, your oil pump might have been froze up when u first started the car and unthawed after a while. that would make it knock. and yea the fluids are REALLY stiff in that temp. but the tranny still shouldn't do that.

If your car has been plugged in outside, in that kinda sh-t... wouldnt really notice any diff. plugged in or not..
and, no, even if its a little cold out (yes that temp is a little to me) the block heater will still heat up. so it still helps.

Gas gets thick too..
and also, gas doesn't get thick unless it is deisel fuel. its either liquid or froze and it doesn't freeze till a lot colder than that. use the iso-alcohol yes but that has to do with condensation in the tank from taking ur car from warm to cold conditions.
mine stared right up no problem in that weather, just gotta let it warm up.
