I just thought of something and have a few questions that might push us in the right direction hopefully.

1. How cold is it at your location?

2. How long ago was it since your last oil change?

3. Do you remember the weight of the oil used? (i.e. 5w/ 30 , 10w/ 40, 20w/ 50 etc.)


Reason behind thought is, if the temperature is fluxing enough between day and night it could be playing with the viscosity of your oil and this could be your gremlin.

If you can get it running during the day, try to get the oil changed, filter and all, afterwards try maybe a 5w/ 40 if it gets that cold, or ask around to see what other people use.
Once changed see if there's a noticable difference.
