Weird, weird start-up problem 200 1983

I was thinking throttle body/idle air cleaning until you said that it starts fine after work.

Now I am thinking that it has to be an electrical conection that has to be warm and/or free of moisture, or have high charging voltage (not idle voltage) in order to work.

Clean all fuses and unplug and replug every electrical connector you can find in both the ignition and fuel circuits. Take a look inside that fuel pump relay.
