It just got cold, and my car starts up fine, just it dies out after it starts, it'll continue to do this till i either feed it gas or it warms up. I'm not to sure what the problem is but that's what it's doing. It hadn't given me any problems till it got cold this year and i had the car since may.

I suspect the tank vent valve, if so 11-15-7-501-567 is the part number for the part you will need to replace. Go to Realoem.com to view its location, and see the retail price.
