Default 92 S-10 Difficult Winter Starting

I have a 92 S-10 4X4 fuel injected. Summer and fall started fine and no problems. Winter hit and it will not start without me priming it directly into the intake. I do that once it will start again just fine untill it sits for several hours and then I have to repeat the priming again. Getting tired of carrying around a can of gas plus its probably not the safest thing to do. Apreciate any suggestions on where to start. Again there are no problems after I get it started the first time.

Thanks

Fuel pressure regulator or leak in the system return lines, stuck fuel injector/poppet valve...tank has a pressure valve to so those are the possibilities...and last but not least FUEL PUMP...

You could just carry around a can of starting fluid lol...umm but in all seriousness I am not really sure. There are many checks to this and alot of the time it can be the fuel pump or somthing associated to it. I would def do a search on the forums for somthing of this sort: "cold starting", "wont start cold" type thing. This topics has been dicussed and resolved a couple dozen times so I would really suggest you try the tips people have given in those threads first and see if they help any.
