Default Problem with start up only when cold

I have a 94 Integra LS motor in my 94 Civic ex. The problem that i have with my car is everytime i try to start it (only when its cold) it dies on me. when it trys to turn on it boggs and dies if i happen to get it started I have to give it gas and the idle goes up and down and sometimes dies. AGAIN this only happens when its cold when the car is warmming up the car starts up fine and runs perfect no loss of power, smoke, or any problems when the car is warmed up. then i go to sleep or leave the car off for a long time the same thing happens. HELP IF YOU HAVE N IDEA WHAT IT COULD BE. and for those of you that are rude i dont need anyone saying "take it to a shop" or "dont mess with your car cuz u have no idea what you are doing" ONLY POST IF YOU HAVE SOMETHING GOOD TO SAY THAT WOULD HELP ME OUT THANKS.

that could be why the ect sensor is what tells the ecu if the motor is running cold or warm if its running cold then its gonna keep dumping fuel into the car then when its cold itll want to stall out get a new plug and new sensor and see what happens its only 27 dollars at the dealership and the plug just get it at a junkyard
