Re: cold weather no start- solved!

Hey List,

Can't start, try the negative cable first, the FAQ on the web page has a
awesome solution to this..I just replaced my ground cable and solved my cold
start problem. Without the list suggestions and the web page advice I would
be in over a few hundred dollars by now. BTW I DID have it to a mechanic
when it broke down on me a while back and told him to replace ANY bad
wires..."the wires are fine" Yeah ok pal....I see you got you mechanics
degree from Sally Struthers....Thanks to all! Best $ 5.00 I ever spent.
