Cold start problem, any ideals???? 200

Oldwheels - Buy a can of starting fluid (ether, $1.50 from Autozone). Open the airbox and spray a 2-3 second burst into the air intake hose (you may need to move the air filter out of the way).

If the car still doesn't start, you may have flooding. Remove the plugs and check to see how wet they are. Clean and dry them if necessary. It may help to leave the plugs out for a while to allow excess fuel in the cylinder to vaporize.

Good luck.
