Sometimes when it is cold out the engine will be harder to start. The battery looses some cranking power when it gets weally cold out. I don't really recomend it to much, but you can try using some starter fluid in the air intake to see if it starts.

No, you can do it now or anytime its really cold out. The car starts ok when its warm out, right? The starting fluid gives it the extra boost that it needs to start. Don't spray too much in.
