Why won't a 98 Mystique start in cold weather even while using starter fluid and with a good battery?

Original Poster answering his own question: As it turns out, while trying to get it to turn over, my starter locked up. We took the starter out (not fun), took it to get it tested, and sure enough, bad starter. Replaced the starter and the car fired up just fine! Hope this helps!

try squirting some sarter fluid in air filter .if this starts engine and then dies, try it again. if engine will run as long as you squirt starter fluid ,the stop when starter fluid runs out, pretty much means you are not getting fuel. so you then need to check fuel filter, fuel pump injectors and injector pump until you find the problem

The click is sound made by the solenoid which is an electric booster switch that cuts in the starter motor. Your battery can supply enough current to operate the solenoid but not enough to turn the engine. Suspect flat battery, corroded battery terminal or loose battery terminals . Unbolt battery clamps. Clean terminals with wire wool smear with petroleum jelly and replace terminals ensuring tight clamps. If still no go then charge battery overnight after checking fluid levels in cells.
