When the weather is above 70 degrees the minivan starts and runs fine. As we've been experiencing cold mornings it won't start. I can crank and crank, but the engine won't turn over. Two different mechanics have checked the scanner and nothing shows up. The first mechanic changed the starter coil and ignition coil and it started fine for one day. Tried a second mechanic who changed the rotor in the distributor. Again, it started fine for one day. Right now it won't start. During all this, after it started it ran fine.

So I had recent problams but on a 96. Come to find out some voyagers need a pcm flash update to fix it. But mine needed a new engine collant temp sensor. I replaced it and never had the problem agian. If read around the net alot of people refer to coolant temp sensor as master sensor due to how many things it controlls

I changed out the coolant temperature sensor, but as soon as the weather turned cold I have the same starting problem. The starter cranks the engine, but there is no spark to fire. Any ideas?
