'88 244 starting confusion. 200

it's been a while since i've posted a need here, but i'm now in need. my 244 will crank like a champ when it's been below freezing overnight (first time and never any trouble.) i don't need to press the gas or anything. it fires right up. when it's been decent or above at night, i must press the gas to get it to crank. all hoses and vacuums are intact. could this be an injector ring or two?? what else?

also, when it's been below freezing, the power steering will moan a bit until the car warms, but NEVER on decent or above nights. is this something to be concerned about? it doesn't leak and doesn't moan for any other reason.

thanks,
Bubba
