Default 1996 V6 Hard Start when engine cold-HELP

1996 1/2 ton truck with V6 stock engine, EFI. This truck is very hard to start in the morning when the engine is cold, meaning 35-40 degrees outside. After the truck has been started or in the afternoon it will start on first try.....but in morning it may take 10 tries to get it started.

This is a problem that has just developed over the last month.....before the cold weather was not a problem when starting.

Where should I start first? The engine has 118k miles on it.
