or his ignition switch is messed up like mine is and it's making better connection when it is warmer out. that is exactly what my car has been doing, except that in my case, it would not even crank because the ignition switch wasn't making contact with the starter contacts.

Just to follow up- My new battery turned out to be a lemon! It was only putting out 200 cold cranking amps. Now, I have the best battery money can buy and my car is running fine with the cold temps. Pretty sure I didn't need a new fuel pump installed. Oh well. After the battery was installed, I had a mechanic check for a parasitic drain. Nothing was detected. Maybe I'll tape the glove box light just as a precautionary. Thanks for the tips!
