2 PM, the truck finally started. Ether didn't help.
My mechanic suggested heat on the distributor cap.
I had cleaned and WD-40 several multi pin connections.
I think the one that helped was either on the ignition
coil, or ignition module. Drove around the block, and
check the mail. Hope that helps for a while.


You might want to yank the battery out and let it warm up
a bit, then charge it. When you need the vehicle reinstall.


I've heard of people doing that. It's a very real
help. I haven't done it, yet. But who can tell.
At -20 a battery puts out about 1/4 of it's regular output. Not 100%
sure of the fraction - but close.
