Help me out please The temp outside was about 14 degrees yesterday and my f'n car wouldn't start. It would turn over and turn over but would not start. Then today, it's about 25 degrees but doesn't feel that cold and the damn car still will not start. Same crap, turns over and won't start. I have plenty of battery power cuz all the lights come on and the battery gauge says it's fine till i crank it a couple times and it goes down of coarse. Does anyone know what the hell is wrong with this damn thing.

It's still not starting? I was able to start my 81 last night, and I drove it to training today...and my car doesn't even have an operational choke.
We'll figure it out. That **** isn't gonna fly when you're putting around 400 to the wheels and it wont' ******* start.

Do optisparks just "go bad" or are there almost always warning signs?

As stated above, my car will not start when it's below freezing but will start up immediately when it's above 32. I don't know but it's f'n weird. Wish i had a nice warm garage to keep her in but i'm not as fortunate as most other people.

Just FYI (For everyone but myself and 97REDZ28) ALL the other cars here in Wyoming are fine. Unless there's some weird "hyper-cold bubble" that envelopes his car and his car only, it's not his gas freezing. Give us another solution to his problem, pretty please.
