Town Car Cold Starting Problem

2006 Lincoln Town Car Executive L V8 Two Wheel Drive Automatic 150000 miles

Engine cranks excessivly before starting in cold weather. Starts good in warm climate. No trouble codes detected

This has happened for 3 years straight. Doesnt start in Winter but fine for the rest of the year. I live in Atlanta so its only 3 months of below 40 degree temp outside.

Check the coolant temperature sensor, clean the idle air control valve and MAF sensor -also do a fuel pressure test-
