Hard to start!!

I have a 1992 Explorer with a starting prob....now that it's a good old Newfoundland winter and freezing, it takes quite a few trys to get my Explorer to start. Almost sounds like the fuel pump is weak, it rolls fine, but doesn't catch. Worked fine in the summer??? After three or four trys it starts, runs and starts great for the rest of the day. Could the over night sit have anything to do with it?

Check fuel pressure, needs to be at spec so it can deliver proper amount to start cold. Also check it after it has sat for a while. Good luck.
