i have the same problem cold starting

It is hard to start when cold. My in laws mechanic tried to clean the idle control valve. Did not work
I switched the cold start valve with a known working one and no gas is sprayed from the valve.
There is pressuer to the valve, how can i make the valve open manually?
I can put a cap full of gas into the intake and it will start right away. Once hot there are no issues.
The trouble shooting suggests changing the thero-time switch. Where is that? How can I test it?
Changed the plugs, wires look good I still have to check the cap and rotor.
Does the car have a obd2 connection to check for error codes?

Also the EHA is leaking, should I replace it or just change the o-rings?

thanks for the help in advance.
Have to be careful of all the plastic and rubber parts there are very dry and can break easily.
