:word: you have to snuggle with them and warm them up

Like others said, if you can push it into a garage and fire up a heater to see if it’ll fire.

Aftermarket injectors don’t work when it’s 30 degrees outside?

When was the last time it ran?

Start with the basics. Got fuel? Got spark?

Pull a plug and see what’s going on. Doubt it’s anything too serious. Bad wire somewhere who’s resistance is just high enough in the cold that it isn’t working maybe?

wonder if the ecu didnt have cold start coniditions adressed properly ?

car could easily be overfueling because of the larger injectors + the ecu’s normal programing to run rich when cold

nope as soon as you lift the clutch at all it kills the starter.
