Truck wont start!!

Hey its been snowing, so now my truck wont start! any ideas? battery is new.

i live in washington where it is always cold and sometimes my carb freezez up in the mornings it started happening when i took all emisions off try spraying starting fluid down carb it may fire. if i drive my truck when it really cold with out letting it fully warm up it will start to form o snow ball in carb good luck...Bigz

i geuss we have the same problem. when its warmer out side it has no problems starting. but ill try the fluid. hopefully it works.

freshly charged battery and a helluva lot of starter fluid started it right up!

sweet bro nice to hear you got her going

i live in a cold area and never had to use starting fluid.. Maybe some help from jumper cables for that extra boost while trying to start but never starting fluid. any carb'd truck /car can have problems starting in winter ..

sounds like your heater plate could be not working or even removed. If you are running a stock setup try leaving the ignition on for a couple minutes before cranking then try. The heater plate should warm the carb enough to keep the fuel from dripping and puddling in the bottom of the intake. Or you could always retard the timing a degree.

Ill have to check for the plate. never thought of that. thanks

yup plate aint warming up

it seems like itll start asap as soon as i give it a jump. the battery is a reconditiond battery and is promised to be as good as new, but im feelin like i just need to get a stronger battery
