Cold weather starting issues
With the cold weather we've been having in New England I've been having some starting issues when my 4Runner sits over night or while I'm at work. When I go to start the car up it starts turning over(Not a sluggish turnover either) then just stops after 2 seconds. It takes me 3 tries to get the truck started but this only happens in very cold weather and only on cold start ups. Would this be related to my starter contact solenoids? Or something more serious? I do not want to get stranded especially with this cold weather. Also the battery is new too and isn't a year old. Any advice would be great. Thanks -Karl

Even brand new batteries aren't immune to the extreme cold. Probably still the battery.
