Default CAr won't start help!!


Okay I have a 2006 v8 stangt with a procharger installed. I have been traveling for work and haven't been able to start my car for 3 weeks. When I got hom today the battery was dead(awesome). After replacing the battery I still can't get me car to turn over, it tries for a godd second then it just sounds like it is trying to turn over agin. It has been really cold in Colorado where I live (high teens low twenties). There seems to be plenty of juice from the new battery, lights work, radio etc. Could it just be the cold?

Do this in the following order and try to start after each step.

1) run the self diagnostics/system checkfunction on your dash.
2) reload the tune you're running.
3) check the fuel pump fuse.
4) there also could be water/condenstion in the fuel line = add a couple of bottle of gas line antifreeze. This allows the water to mix with the fuel and be burned instead of separating and interfering with fuel delivery.

you may need to put a battery charger
on your new battery for several hours, then
attempt a jump start with another running
vehicle.

good luck, i hope you get her started
