difficult cold starting

My 94 e320 with 118,000 miles is having trouble starting at 40 degrees and below. Cranks fine as battery is just 12 month old; spark plugs replaced in August 05 (correct Bosch plugs from Fastlane). Fires after 3 to 4 revolutions, and dies. This sequence continues unil I intervene by a few quick stabs to the accelerator after which it catches and runs without any problem. Any Ideas?
regards,
Mark

ps My wifes 96 Nissan Maxima (135,000 miles) almost simultaneously began the same behavior.
