Car won't start when its cold out When its below freezing at night and I go to start my car in the morning, it refuses to so much as even crank over.I turn the key, push the clutch in, and get absolutely NOTHING. However, if the car does startup, its fine for the rest of the day, and it is only when its cold out. The clutch fluid is low, could that be the problem? So far this week I have replaced the starter, soloenoid, and changed the oil...the car runs absolutely great otherwise, but I have been late to work twice now because of this. Any suggestions? Its a '95 T/A, bone stock...I was thinking maybe a fuel filter, but the car doesn't even crank over! |
Batteries always go bad or show that they are going bad in cold weather, found out that mine was dead a week ago at 6:30am when I was supposed to be leaving for work in 40 degree weather. |
If you cant crank it over replace the batter with a good CCA rating. Go from there, check for draws as well. |
try pumping the clucth a few times next time you go to start it after it was freezing outside that could determine if the fluid level is causing the problem |
Oh I also put a new battery in the car...the clutch fluid is low, but I didn't know it would cause the car to not start...Ill fill it up and let you guys know how it goes. |
Try to start the car without disengaging the clutch you get the samething you are describing. |
sounds like a bad connection somewhere to me. check the ground going from your battery the ground going from the chassis to the motor and the ground going to the starter itself |
