I'd say this 2140 has a long history of poor cold starting. Previous owner had two new ground cables on it and two batteries but it still didn't start good once the temp got cooler. I replaced the starter with a new one. Also a new alternator. Replaced the two older smaller batteries with one big group 31. Installed a relay to the starter.
