Having trouble with 333g starting once the temp drops below 20-25. First thought it was battery but then it warmed up the next day and started fine and has started fine for a month since then. Next we thought starter but it doesn't click or make any noise, but starts fine when warmer. Wondering if there is some kind of safety or switch that could've gone bad. All help's appreciated.

MY suggestion is take the battery and have it LOAD tested, not just take a voltage reading,(all larger chain auto parts stores do this for free)
as a bad cell in a battery will be effected more so in cold temps and thus not make enough power to start or barely start machine when temps are cold!
so, till you rule out the battery, you will just be guessing at other things,
have to start at the source and work down stream!

the colder a battery get the less power it can give,plus oil thickens . So using the block heater and some type of battery warmer will help a bunch.
