Listers,
I'm new to V8's & i'm having a problem,
it's been starting fine just turn the key but it's
been very cold out in Mass the past week & well I have
3 quattros,&
i'm a roofer so i don't like driving the V8 to work
so i'll drive my 87 5ksq & the V8 will sit. So after
letting the car site for 3 day's in near 0deg weather
it won't start,
it wants to just won't take that last step (know what
I mean) cranks over, cranks over almost catches almost
to the point were it will start sputtering but not
quiet there.
Before I look at SJM's web page anyone know what's
up? Temp sensor maybe? not giving the ECU a signal?
Maybe put a bottle of dry gas in the tank? I'm sure
i'm getting spark (new plugs as of 500 miles), fuel
filter is new (2k old) so I don't think it's clogged.
Like I said the cars been running great it's just
that it's been a cold muther out & now it won't start
not even with a fresh batterie & all the cable
connections look good no corrosion.
Thanks for any help
Ron
