Hi!
The weather here in Montreal is weird. Temp goes from -20C to 5C, lot of snow but my NG900 is going strong.
What I will do first, and the easyest, is to see if you have any fire at the plugs. Remove one spark plug. With the wire still plugged to the plug, make a contact with the engine. Ask someone to start the car. If you see no spark, then you know it might be the distributor cap, rotor or wire. Cleaning ang regapping to plug is always a good thing to do anytime.
If there is spark, then it is fuel related. By experience, fuel filter is rarely the culprit. Could be the fuel pump. When you put the key on the ON position (not start), do hear a noise?
Did you clean the IAC valves? Might be stuck close. Could be dirty injectors. Once the car start, add a good injector cleaner in the fuel tank.
Take a look at this web site.
Good luck!
Michel
