<< <<Dakota content my 99 4x with a 5.2 did not start yesterday morning, temp
was
-7 Celsius (approximately 20-25 degrees for you guys in the States) this
is the second time at this same temp that my truck has not started any
ideas before I take it in to the idiots oops!, I mean dealer>>
That's weird, my '98 318 seems to love the cold and fires right up...
Besides
20-25 isn't that cold anyway. It's cold enough to freeze any water in the
fuel
line though, which is the only problem I can think of. Do you think you
might
have bought some bad gas somewhere? I think there is a gas tank additive
that
supposed to get rid of any water in your tank. You may want to try some
before
you see the idiots and get the old NTF report! ;-)

True, my dad's Taurus did the same cold start thing when we had -35 wind chill
temps about 2 months ago. He went out and put in a bottle of gas line anti-
freeze with moisture absorber and about 2 hours after putting it in the car
fired right up. In the cold winter months, I run a bottle through my tank once
a month just to make sure the lines dont freeze up. Good Luck
