Thanks! I need to buy a spark plug tester, noid light, and thermometer to put in coolant and test thermostat. If engine is cold and coolant is flowing, I need to replace thermostat.

Thanks for the video, I dont know much about cars so thank you for a brief introduction to these kind of problems, from people like me who need simple explainations. Also, if dosteddaram and mileycyrus192 have a problem with the content of this video, why dont you contact and try to send suggestions to the channel?

this video sucks badly... a lot of times if it does not crank over it can be your FUEL LINE TOO. because that what happen to me a frozen gas line out in the cold under half gallon more like a quarter tank which is bad for 25 degrees weather. from bad fuel pump to frozen gas line. or if your battery so cold it won't start either.
