Car ishard to start when cold- why?
Ok, two weeks ago, I changed the spark plugs, cap & rotor, and wires. I installed an MSD coil as well. I sprayed carb cleaner into the TPI plenum and throttle body to clean them out; good and clean.
But, it is hard to start when cold. Any ideas? When it fires it runs smooth and well. So i know the fuel injectors are ok...
1992 350TPI. I am baffled!
Any help is appreciated. Thanks in advance...

Has it always done this, or is this a new symptom? When you say hard to start, is that just a long crank to start, or is it actually spinning slow? Does it just hit a couple of cylinders and then start? Please be more specific. It could still be dirty injectors. I wouldn't rule that out because it idles well. The continuous adjustment by the computer helps that out. The higher air velocity also helps atomizations as compared to cranking speed.
