Newly Transplanted 245 200

Hello Everyone,

I recently purchased a 1989 245 from Florida, and moved it to Northern Illinois. It drove the 1400+ miles without incident, but after letting it sit here in Illinois (Temperature in the upper 30's low 40's) It is very difficult to start (Takes 10 or more tries). It does seem to crank well, and sounds as though it would like to "Fire right up". The car has the EZK ignition system, and it shows no fault codes, The in tank pump seems to be in need of replacement (The main pump is noisy) But I would like to solve this problem before putting the car down for the "Full Treatment" (Suspension, Brakes, Timing Belt, and other related engine issues, Charging System, Etc.)Any suggestions would be appreciated!!!! Thank you in advance for all your help!!!!
