Hard to start in cold weather. 850 1995

Good morning to all,

I am looking to suggestions on where to start on my 1995 850 GLT wagon. It turns over, but just doesn't start.

I put a timing light on it, to make sure that I have spark, and I do. It just cranks and cranks and cranks... and finally (after a minute or 2 of on and off trying) it will start. I am guessing that it is fuel related in some way, because I did have spark. I did check all the fuses, as well as the ignition coil wire to make sure it was tight.

Yesterday, I cleared the service light, but that was nothing unusual. It worked on the first try.

No warning lights on the dash when it gets running.

Currently, it's 45 degrees outside, nothing all too bad.

Any suggestions are welcome.

Ted
