It's more likely to be not enough pressure from the fuel pump. The pump also has a relief valve built in to it, although it is unlikely to ever operate. There is a check valve in the pump too, if it doesn't hold pressure it makes it hard to start. Before you do anything, attach a pressure gauge to the cold start hose & see what the pressure actually is.

Cheers,
Paul.
