Started for a moment and quit, weather was extreamly cold and below -10 degrees when attempting to start, after weather warmed up it will not start, it seems like their is no fire, battery went dead so i put a trickle charger on the vehicle to charge up battery and it will still not start
A trickle charger will have a hard time charging a completely dead battery unless you leave it on a DAY or two. Clean the battery terminals with the cables off and then put them back on. Try to borrow (or buy) a battery charger of at least 10-15 amps and leave that on for 4 hours. Then try to restart. Remember running the car will NOT recharge a dead battery even after you get a "jump"
Take the air temp sensor off. and leave in warm house. till at your homes warm temp then go out and install the sensor.and start engine. if it starts this is your problem.
SOURCE: Wont start when weather is cold.
Tune up... its flooding when its cold due to the plugs being worn out...

go to an auto parts store and get an electcic dipstick heater . remove your oil dipstick after parking car for the night.install electric dipstick preferrably while engine is still hot plug it in at night .this will
help keep the oil warm and also the block after car starts unplug heater remove it and install original dipstick. this is the easiest to install but there are also block heaters

Hiya...if your battery need attention to charge it up, I suggest a very good, modern battery charger from well-known stores such as Sears, Canadian Tire or what's available in your town.
The newer battery chargers offer smart-charging technology to provide correct polarization and 12 volts/amperage for 'instant boost' power/quick charge/overnight/slow-charge functions that you select it and the beauty of it is the 'smart' charger slow down the charge voltage to a trickle to prevent 'cooking' of the battery cells (so the battery case don't expand and crack/leak acid)
Tip: if your battery received a 'instant boost' prior to driving off, try driving around for at least 15 minutes to allow the alternator to pump full charge to the battery so it should store enough 12v power in it for your next start-up.
