Good day,



As the weather here has become much colder and much more wet, the car has been very difficult to start. The first thing I did was change the plugs and wires, which worked great for about 36 hours.

Today (still no new thermo) was extremely cold and wet and I was barely able to start the car.

Another probable cause of hard cold starting is an old, weak ignition coil. The colder the weather is, the harder it is to start (or it won't even start at all.) I have heard that this is a problem on the late 80s and early 90s GMs with a 3.8L engine. My mom's 89 LeSabre has the same problem.
