[DML] Another... Cold Start Problem

My car fires up great when warm or within 15 hrs of last running. If I wait a day
or so between driving it becomes hard to start... takes a while cranking, trys to
fire up, when finally starts idle is high then smooths out fairly quickly. It has
slowly getting worse.
The other day it was the worst yet. Tried to start, just cranked & battery power
drained way down. I thought it was my battery going bad. But a few seconds later
putting the key to the accessories position the power was up to 12 volts. Did
this a few times with no luck.
I ended up having to do the "Hot Start" Quick Fix ( plug the Control Pressure
Regulator plug into the Cold Start Valve socket ) to get it running. 15miles to
work, sat all day, started up fine at 5pm. Also started fine the next morning
(thismorning).
Is this a sign of my Cold Start Valve going bad?
Or could it be something else?
