Cold Starting

[Benjamin Harder <harderb@email.uc.edu>]

  It is now getting pretty cold here in Cincinnati, OH.  The morning
temperatures
are only in the 30's.  Well, it seems that my 16v doesn't like these cold
starting
temperatures.  I am having no trouble at all cranking...and cranking.  The
engine
will turn over for about 5 seconds or more before firing.  Then, once it
fires, the
engine runs just fine.  I tried replacing the ground cable with a thicker
wire to see
if this could help, but it really hasn't helped the cold start.  Does
anyone with a
16v have similar problems?
