cold starting problems

Great web site Guys Thanks to all those that have helped so far

I've read a lot of threads this past week Many of you have discussed problems with I 6's having warm starting problems mine is the opposite (read egr valve by tb123 for a brief history) horrible to start cold ,when it starts, runs and starts fine when hot. Got it back from the shop, they got it running again, but I've still got the same problem. Missing work, running out of cash and ideas, anyone have this problen before, got any ideas.

What year is it? Could be a coolant temp. sensor if so equipped. If it's carbureted check the choke thermostat.
