there is no cold start injector on the lh 2.2 cars. cold start is handled by the coolant temp sw and the ecu programming. at 65f, i doubt it's gotten cold enough. and, are you sure it's fuel? a tired coil on a chrysler ignition is very likley. have the ignition scoped and look for the reserve capacity of the coil. a cold start is a stress on the ignition system, even if the rest of it is new. good luck, chuck.
