Car won't start when cold out 900 1993

1993 945 non turbo
cold weather package
California car
131,000 miles

On cold days under 50 degrees after sitting for more than 8 hours my car has a very hard time starting. It just cranks for a couple of min and then it does this start and stall thing for a few times before it will finally start and run real rough for about 15 seconds. I can spray some starting fluid into the intake and get right to the start and stall part right away. Once the car has been driven or it's a warm day the car starts normal. I was told to pipe propane along the vacume lines and along the intake to see if I would get a change in RPM's and find a possible air leak but no such luck. Does anyone have any idea what could be causing my baby to feel sick?
