Hi all,

The other morning when it was minus 3 i went to start my TS and she just didn't want to start i tried a few times before i gave up and left her for a hour. When i came back to her she started up but she felt like she was struggling. Anyone got any ideas what could of caused it?

She starts up now but im just worried if it gets colder she won't wanna start again.

Thanks in advance.

Charge your Battery, its going to be using more power to start the car especially in the winter, or if the cars a couple of years old and has the original Battery on replace it, then go for the plugs after if the fault still occurs.

yeah, batteries can run low in extreme cold - give it a good run.

Also, try pumping the accelerator when you crank it - if its very cold sometimes the pump can struggle to get enough fuel into the engine for a spark.
