Has never had problems, till this morning. It was about 9:30, and 38*F. The starter turns over strong, but the engine will not start unless I hit the gas and hold it. i kept it this way till it was warm, then let go of the gas, and it died. When I am not hitting the gas, it still dies. It has the 5.9 liter V8, 117,7XX miles, many mods. It usually starts very strong.
I don't know if this is significant, but it has a very strong smell of gasoline, never smelled it so strong before.
or the Iac. mine did the same thing. my mechanic said that sometimes it has trouble adjusting to the cold weather. I just bought a new one in leiu of cleaning it. haven't had a problem since
