hard to start when cold
« on: January 08, 2011, 08:54:07 PM »
My 06 grand vitara is hard to start when cold, like 30 degrees or colder outside. Runs fine when warms up and is stock with 70K on it. I have to crank it like crazy and sometimes it will sputter then die. If the outside temp is above 30-35 it starts fine. What would cause this?

Water in the Fuel? Clogged Fuel filter?

First thoughts that come to mind if there are no engine codes and you haven't made any mechanical adjustments.
