In cold weather, my truck will start up just fine and run without stalling. However, if I make only a short trip (i.e., 5 or so minutes in length) and then turn off the truck, I am not able to not start it again for a couple of hours. The engine turns over just fine (i.e., the lights come on, the truck starts to idle, etc.) but unless I keep my foot constantly on the gas, it just keeps stalling and I can't get it going for two or more hours. Does anyone have any idea what is causing this? (Note: it runs fine in warmer weather - i.e., above 5 Celsius - and I can "stop and go" as many times as I'd like; it's just that once it hits below that temperature, I cannot turn off my truck unless I know that I won't be needing to use it again for a couple of hours)
