Default 84 Civic Cold Start Problem

hey everybody whats up?

so, I bought this 84 civic with 215,000 on it for 300...the car runs fine and looks okay, but it's a hard starter...especially in the mornings or whenever it's cold...once it's all the way warmed up it'll start fine...

does anyone know of a cheap way that might remedy this?

You can buy these cold crank starter thing at at wal mart or so which you spray into the intake box (I think) which should help you with the problem.

Spray some starting fluid directly into the carb and it should help, but that might be a little much to do on a daily basis.
