Hi people,

Just wondering if anyone else has had this happen with their truck. When it's cold it starts fine (strong start). When it's summer and warm it starts strong. But when the weather warms up to around -5*C or there abouts, starting is weak. The engine doesn't roar up. It starts rather weakly like it's almost going to stall out but it doesn't. Once it's started it's fine. I only notice this when the weather sort of in between where it's not really cold or warm.

The truck has a new battery and had it's 96,000 km servicing about 2 months ago.

Could my idle need adjusting?

Thanks in advance for any enlightenment.
