yes the cold weather will cause this.diesels are a problem to start if glow plugs are not working properly. if one glow plug is not working, it will shorten the cycling time and make starting hard. also not plugging i makes hard starting. i use a little squirt of starter fluid in the air intake when this happens. truck will start, then just let it warm up for about 5 minutes. PS: if outside temp drops below 55 , it will be hard to start.
