    Honda Accord 2003 not starting in cold weather
    I have a 2003 Honda Accord 2.4. My car was recently serviced and the spark plugs were replaced and the battery was replaced. I started having problem with the car not starting on cool or cold days. I then returned to my mechanic and got the new battery replaced again. I'm still having the same issue when it's cool or cold. When it doesn't start I wait a little bit and it eventually starts with a little gas. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

    Sonnic1, check/replace the Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT) Sensor. It has two wires going to it, while the ECT Switch has one wire going to it. People often get these confused. Simply unscrew the old sensor and screw in the new one.
