In winter, if I start the car and dont let it run for 15min (minimum) before driving it. Sometime, the car dies when Im about to go. I know it's not good for the car to drive it when the engine is still cold but my case is not normal because sometime it does that even I waited like 10-15min. My battery is 1 year old (1000 ampere)...spark plugs are 6 month olds...dont have any 'Check Engine' light in the dash...I wonder if it can be the wiring (because I didnt changed it since I have my car). What do you guys think?
 TIA for your help |

if your car takes that lone to warm up you might want to look at the thermostat
actually i just saw that you live in canada, do you have to use a block heater up there? This post has been edited by Snarfer: Jan 17, 2005 - 11:17 AM |
