|  cold mornings wont start! Hello all! havent been here for a while!! Well im having problems with the wifes estima... It never starts on cold mornings! no matter what, it goes to fire up but then doesent all the way to a flat battery! its being run on 100% diesel so no thick oil in there? Thing is my wife needs it every morning and if it wont start till 11-12 oclock its pointless owning it! Can anyone give me some advice to help it start? Without spending money as I have non!!! | ||||||||
