Default Car wont start again

well fellas, after numerous attempts to start my baby, no luck. I finally received the manuals from sewell and will attempt to troubleshoot. My ride only acts up when it is cold outside, but the second it warms up, no problem. I had a few would mechanics tell me its not the starter but it sounds as if my engine isnt getting fuel. So i figured it must be the cold start injector. My battery has been tested, my alternator is brand new. So if anyone has any other suggestions let me know.

How many miles on your Lex?
Could be a plugged fuel filter.

It could be your fuel that you are using. Try adding some drygas in the fuel tank

Try the battery - make sure contacts are clean.
Check ground connections - as many as you can find.
Check fuses - the starter relay.
Check your fuel filter, distributor rotor, wires, plugs.

Then go to your fuel pump ecu - and troubleshoot from there. If you want to do all this yourself you're going to need factory manuals unless you know the car well.

check this thread on fuel ecu - page 2

Also, as pcmw would say -
