Just bought this car a month ago. Starts and runs smooth in warm weather,

What its been doing is now that it is cold it doesn't start until I release the key after cranking and it takes a few times, now it doesn't start but will pop after I release the key, some times sputter once or twice without starting, turns over smooth.

I tried a new ignition coil with no luck, I am stuck somewhere with no tools, so I might have to tow it home.

Any ideas??
Thanks.

 

Have you done a tune up to it?? Check the plug wires for any cracks and also, your distributor cap..
Let me know how it goes..

 

Check all the connections of wires and also the distribute cap..
