Starting issue

I have a 1993 Ford F150 4.9 L V6 in-line 300. It takes starting fluid to crank up when it is cold. Once it is running, it runs fine and as long as it is warm it’ll keep on cranking without starting fluid. I have changed the ignition switch. Also, I’ve cleaned out the intake with brake parts cleaner. Any ideas from anyone?

What? V6 Inline?

Check codes, Smoke check intake. Check fuel pressure.

There is no one here that will be able to help you until you give us some information.
