Weird? it wont start

[SMOKEDYA]

On my 92 4 cylinder,for some reason it didnt wanna start yeasturday AM and then again today it dosent want to?It's been in the low teens at night and barly getting above freezing during the days.Yesturday i tried to start it 1st thing in the AM and it cranked fine and acted like it wanted to start but just wouldnt fire off!So i drove the other car and was gone for about 2 hours came home and it started no problem! And again today it's doing the same thing as far as not starting. I've never had a problem with it not wanting to start.The antifeeze is new and toppped off the fuel tank is full just filled up lastnight before i parked it,oil is good.Even tho it cranks over fine could the cause be a battery?peace

could be the battery. also your DIS may be on the way out.

dis? do you mean the distributer? It has coil packs,it's the 8 plug head 4 banger no distributer.Maybe the battery tho?Even tho it cranks over fine and at normal speed?It's cranking over like it's firing off,but also kinda like it's not getting fuel? peace

DIS is Distributorless Ignition System, he was meaning the coil pack(s).

Well i just think it dosent wanna start when it's this dam cold! I just tried to start it again this AM and it didnt start,it cranked over just finebut no start. It's 12* ouitside right now. Is there a sencer that does something to make it start when it's super cold?Again yesturday i went out to try to start it up first thing and it didnt and again it was in the teens.Waited about and hour till the sun melted the heavy frost off it and it fired right up!peace

The ECT and ACT are what relate temperature.
