Cold Start issues...

Let me start off by saying... I HATE Electrical issues....

Anyway maybe one of you guys (or gals) can help me out...

On FrankenWedge (My EG33 Swapped XT6), it is nearly IMPOSSIABLE to start when it's cold....during the summer months it starts pretty good, but once it gets cooler, it will hardly start, I have to crank on it forever, and play with the gas pedal to ever get it to start...once it's running it starts up fine.

I've assumed it was the CTS for the ECU...but I replaced it with one out of my parts engine, to the same results (I suppose it could have been bad too)

But is there anything else I should look at?

I have no ways to check code on it, as I don't have a CEL hooked up....

..So any ideals?

Thanks,
Huck
