Hmmm. 91? That's right around the time the cold start injector was eliminated on the 740's... Maybe on the 240's too?
If not, I'd think the cold start injector is causing issues.

Here's what I'd try. Go out and sit in the car. Turn on the headlights for a minute or so, shut them off. Turn the key to KP2 and wait ten seconds. You should hear the fuel pumps. Without touching the gas, crank the car over for about 3-5 seconds(about 15 chick-a's max). If it doesn't start, let off the starter.
Wait a few seconds and repeat it. If it doesn't start after the 3rd try, then start poking around at some other things.

Good Luck
