I live in Ohio and just recently it has started getting colder outside.Well the Explorer that I have wont start.It will however turn over and act like it really wants to start.After a few tries is seems to lose its umph in the process of it starting.That I can smell antifreeze after it finishes attempting to start.All advice greatly appreciated.

 

ok...missed this post...but will answer it now..

basic things to check....

pull a spark plug and turn engine over to check for spark....

check fuel pressure.....

is check engine light on?

what is the history of this vehicle? did it sit for a long time? sudden problem?
