Check the muffler and tail pipe system for carbon monoxide leaks. These leaks are especially dangerous during cold weather driving when windows are closed.

A diagnostic check-up of the engine is a good pre-winter investment. If you’re due for a tune-up, have it done to prevent other major problems from occurring. Faulty wiring, worn spark plugs, a choke that sticks, or emission control devices that need attention, can all lead to hard starting.
