Better look under the hood to see if you've got an air cooled engine....sure sounds like one!

I love that startup sound. I don't care how cold it is outside, I roll down the windows when I start it up so I can listen.

I've noticed that my engine fan is making a bit of a whining sound lately on cold starts. I know the fan is normal, but it kind of sounds like the bearing needs grease.

And it says this in the manual, btw.
