After sitting overnight,the car won't start the next day.The car turns over the first time but won't catch.Battery seems fine.The next two times I try to start the car the battery dies.I hook up jumper cables and immediately it starts.Batt/Alt light or any dash light does not stay on.Car runs fine afterwards. this happens only in VERY COLD temps.Always -10 celcius or colder.Mid-teens or colder faranheit.
