I looked around the forum for this and didnt find any related issues. My 91 2.3L ranger has 140k on it and iv been noticing it doesnt like to start when its cold outside. I use to live in FL where the temp never dropped below 45f. I moved out to california and in the mornings, my truck REFUSES to start for me. Its a pain in the ass waking up for college - preying to the engine gods, then at a frosty 6am, crossing my fingers before i turn the key. It will just keep cranking and cranking. Iv been parking my truck front end facing downhill because the only way i can get it started is by popping the clutch after i get some speed down the hill. It really sucks and im stumped on what the hell it could be. Iv replaced the solenoid, the starter went out on me a few months ago so new starter, new battery, new alternator, new catalytic converter, new fuel filter. New K&N air filter..... im lost. Could it be O2 sensor, or MAF sensor?? any help would be greatly appreciated guys. Iv been taking my super sweet and super fast ZX-9r to school, which isnt a broblem but ,..... GOD F*CKIN DAMN COLD ON THE BIKE MAN! Any ideas? Thanks a lot gents.
