1997 Malibu will not start when cold

Hello everyone,

I have a 1997 Malibu that will not start when its cold outside.

The only way I can get it to start is disconnect the battery for 5 minutes and reconnect it. Then if fires right up.

Has anyone seen this issue before or have an idea of what it might be?

Thank you,

Matt

UUUUUMMMM....... I have a 1997 malibu, which I had for over 2 years now and I never had a problem with starting it up in the cold. I have the V.6 3100 motor. It sound like it might the passlock issuse, which is common with this car................
