Subject:Cold Weather Starting # 2

Some of you may have read my first posting about starting in sub-zero temps.

Well, with all of my efforts I was unable to start my Syncro.  This weekend 
I want to go through everything that effects starting (replace:  plugs, 
wires, rotor, cap . . .)  Is there anything else that may have an impact? 
 Should I change the injectors?  Cost?

I received a few replies to my first posting - hats off to all - Joel Walker 
offered good advice, I don't think it was copied to the entire list (his 
comments follow).
