It's getting cold. My brother-in-law in upper Michigan is starting to experience problems starting in the morning when it gets down to 32 or below. Apparantly he can eventually get the thing started, and later in the afternoon, when the air temp is not so cold, the van starts normal.

Anyone got any ideas?

oh, he's got a 1986 digifant, 2.1 liter.
