When starting your engine in very cold
weather (below
0°F or - I SOC), do this:
1. With your foot off the accelerator
pedal,
turn the ignition key to Start
and hold it there. When the engine
starts, let go of the key. Use the
accelerator pedal to maintain engine
speed,
if you have to, until your
engine has run for
a while.
2. If your engine still won’t start (or
starts
but then stops), it could be
flooded
with too much gasoline. Try
pushing your accelerator pedal all the
way to the floor and holding
it there
as you hold the key in Start for about
three seconds.
If the vehicle starts
briefly but then stops again, do the
same thing, but this time keep the
pedal down for five or
six seconds.
This clears the extra gasoline from
the engine.
