Can a GMC Jimmy start in the Cold?

Why does my Vortec not start in the rain?
If it happens in the rain then make it rain use a spray bottle and wet your ignitiodn components especially coil pach and coil wire to distributor. One other possibility could be a crank sensor or the small conn3ctor at the coil pack that commqnds the coil on and off. Have someone crank it while you wiggle it. Good morning folks.
Can a Vortec 4.3 crank but won’t start?
It cranks like a champ, but just doesn’t start, no check engine light on, and nothing else comes up on the good scanners either. Once it starts there is no problem, so the mechanics working on it have just been changing parts trying to guess, I guess. It has new plugs, wires, distributor cap and rotor, ICM, MAP censor and fuel injectors.
Can a car misfire when it rains or snows?
yes damp weather will cause weak ignition system parts to missfire, or even fail, and even stall the engine in dangerouse driving conditions (heavier rain) especially on 4.3 motors and especially on Astro’s as the dog house will hold in mousture.

Why is my Chevy Silverado 1500 not starting?
However, today, when the truck will crank and start, the antitheft icon goes off after a few seconds with the key on and stays off while the truck is running. It never flashed either today or yesterday though. And I don’t know if the antitheft system disables cranking or starting or both.
What does intermittent no start mean on a car?
Share it! An intermittent no-start condition references any time where starting is possible sometimes, and other times the engine will not start. This implies that the difference between starting and failure to start is not understood.
Why does my 97 Chevy truck not start?
97 Chevy truck won’t start when it gets cold?? When ever it gets cold my truck will not start. Seems to be fuel pressure but can’t smell any gas like it was flooding. It does’nt even fire like it wants to start.
Why does my car run bad in wet weather?
When the plug job was done,it ran well (because engine was warm) the next day with a cold start it ran bad,real rough. I was thinking that the loose fouled plug caused the coil pack to over load and go bad…Now when the weather is wet it makes it way worse.At least when it is dry I can drive it.

Can a 4.3 Astro start in wet weather?
Also wouldn’t start on humid days. yes damp weather will cause weak ignition system parts to missfire, or even fail, and even stall the engine in dangerouse driving conditions (heavier rain) especially on 4.3 motors and especially on Astro’s as the dog house will hold in mousture.
What kind of problems does a 1993 Jimmy have?
I have a 1993 Jimmy. It has been having starting issues. We have heard everything from the fuel injectors needs to be cleaned to replacing the water pump. We have replaced the computer twice, the second time the garage replaced it free. But now it does not start but turns over.

What’s the final intake torque on a 98up?
Try looking through the “No Start” Problems discussion too. For 98up Blazers the final lower intake torque is 11 ft lbs reached in 3 steps – any higher will cause other problems. Most shop books give in inch pounds and most of us have ft lb wrenches. Just wanted to document the correct torque for newer Blazers.
