So, I am stymied. My '96 ST died in the cold in Boston overnight bt 1 and 2 January. The overnight temps were -20 F, give or take. I was running errands the evening of the first, and it seemed to be running fine. The morning of the 2nd she would crank and crank, but not catch. I have since moved to NC where I have a garage and temps in the 40s. I have confirmed she isn't getting a spark or maybe an occasional weak one. I have replaced: distributor cap and rotor, battery, coil, and igniter. Still no love. I am a decent home mechanic, but I can't read wiring diagrams. Where to go from here? *bangs head against desk*
