Cold start problem ?

Has this been noticed before? Through the summer (UK) the car started perfectly every time, first turn of the key. Recently as the temperature has dropped the car refuses to start. Today it took 6 or 7 attempts before the engine spluttered into life and gave a few puff's of blue smoke (unburnt fuel I pressume). Is there a recognised technique for starting during colder weather?

Regards Peter

Hey Buddy, you should really do a search first before posting something like that otherwise, your gonna get flamed by some of the #$@sH#@ in this forum. Do a search on flooding.
