1993 Ford Ranger V6 Four Wheel Drive Manual 117000 miles

When it get to cold outside my truck won't start, it will crank for a half an hour if put to the test but just won't kick over. When it is warm outside she will start everytime with out fail. If I put a heater by her and give it 30 minutes she starts up and runs good all day but come the next cold morning same problem. Can you give me an idea of what it is?

You more then likely have a bad coolant temp sensor. It could also be caused by a bad or dirty MAF sensor if you vehicle has one. Another cause could be a faulty IAC and dirty throttle body.

Sounds like a spark problem check for spark remove the coil wire from the coil and then check for spark while cranking if there is no spark replace the ignition module. Let me know if it helps let me know pat
