Cold Starting Problems

Tryed (cold starting problems)as a title for this thread and got no responce.Now that I have your attention when it is like 25 degrees or so when I try starting my Lariet 5.4 first thing in the morning it goes into failsafe mode.I turn it off and wait a few minutes and it starts as normal.Anyone else run into this.If so I will be thankful for your responce and any advice.

Sorry for the trick. Hope no one is offended.

lol, if you added Baseball to the title, you'd have covered my three favorite subjects.

No clue on your problem, but the dealer should be able to figure it out quickly while scanning on startup...assume you're still under warranty?

Maybe you spilled beer on some electronics. Or perhaps you should turn off the dome light, but the battery should not drain in two minutes.
