Ok it was 6 degrees out and the wind chill was at -12 degrees at some points last night. I needed to drive my 7 today because my wife has my winter beater due to her car in the shop. the 7 did not want to start at all it cranked and it wanted to start but it didn't turn over, i tried about 6 times and i gave up, could anyone tell me what it is, being that my 7 ran perfect the day before because i had to use it. but it was 32 degrees yesterday! please let me know whats up with it!

Did ur fuel lines freeze?
|
might of that is what i was thinking i am going to try it as soon as i get off work! so we shall see! do i need to do the flood process? since it didn't start and it has been sitting for almost 8 hours

I have had a problem with mine last couple of days when the temp was around 0. It would start but it would bounce a lot at idle like it was about to die unless i gave it gas and let it warm up first and then it wouldn't act like it was dying.

sevens love the cold temps imho..
its what the cold generates that the seven doesnt care for... https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png |
was it just cranking slowly?
no cars like the cold, especially ones with 20 year old wiring verify battery voltage and load test it, alternator output, starter amperage consumption.. inspect the terminals and mounting of all the main connections, make sure everything is clean and snug.. i'm sure you'll find something that needs attention cold weather is murder on all sorts of vehicles |
yes i have learned that the cold is not the cars best friend now my winter beater needs a new battery! the cold is nothing to play with! but i am going to see if it starts today. the car doesn't crank slow but i have it on the battery charger and it should be good today it has been on t he charger for 2 days so i will see what happens today!
