ok so i just got home from work its 4 in the morning and i havent drove my car in 2 days, its been pretty cold.....so i went out to start it and it started hard....but started, so i let it run for like 10 min, shut it off....i wanted to start it back up because my battery seemed week and i want to see if it would start again, turned it over and nothing........just cranks.....any suggestions?
 


Well, cold weather will finish off a weak battery. My advice is use a battery charger, a fully charged battery should light your car up. But plan on buying a new battery soon., especially if its over 5 years old.
 
maybe check the ign. control module or fp relay/resistor whatever. if it turns over good u know its not the charging system.
 


Ended up bein fuel pump.....confused the crap out of me.....it ran finr then nothin.....so 270$ later it runs fine...thanks for the help
 
We used to have 1999 2 door Tahoe's at work, and the fuel pumps were a common problem...it was funny, you would walk out to the parking lot and hear everybody tapping the fuel tanks. Sometime it helped the pump, other times it didn't!

Exactly what I did for my Bronco. Carried around a hammer with me and when it started acting up, gave the tank a couple of hits, and it worked fine for a couple of days. Eventually, the pump died totally, luckily in the driveway!
