Question Cold Start :-(

I have had this car since the begining of October and it has always been slugish while warming up when the temp gets into the high 30s. Today it's freezing rain and sleeting, temp is 32. Now it will not start. It cranks fine but will not fire up.

Any idea? TIA

You might want to scan some of the earlier Rennlist posts, and, even the Archives. Unfortunately, these cars have lots of little starting gremlins. If the battery is a tiny bit weak, it could affect it- 928's have this problem in spades. The flywheel sensor, or, the flywheel itself could be worn out. I'm having this problem right now. Take a look at some of the other posts though- they should have a little more technical info... Can you roll start it? Mine will roll start when this happens, and after driving around around awhile, it will normally do okay for awhile. It's really a random thing- I park on hills a lot
