Hello, haven't been on this forum for a while so I hope I am on the correct one for this question. I have a 97 Explorer, 163,700 miles, over the past ten days it turns over sometimes. When it does turn over it runs until I turn the key. It has been cold down here in central Virginia. Five days ago I tried turning it over and the second try it did. I had important things in town to do so I just left it running while I had to do things . It ran for two hours. Two nights ago I cleaned the battery terminals and it fired right up. I let it run for about 20 minutes to warm it up. I then shut it off and tried to start it and it wouldn't turn over. Tried two more times and the same thing. It's been sitting for two days. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
