car wont start cold

So its been about 10F at night lately. In the morning when I get up, my TII does NOT want to start. This morning I had to use brake cleaner to get the thing to kick over.

The car has NO hard start problems whatsoever, and even starts up fine if the car is reasonably cold, but not freezing.

It's not flooding, in fact it's not getting enough fuel it seems.

Any idea on what the problem could be?

Frozen fuel lines? Check the voltage at the fuel pump and check the intank filter to see if it is clogged.
