What your saying-- is when cold-- it is in open loop & won't
run until warm & in closed loop.there is some clue to what
to diagnose

Are all the vacuum hoses on according to the diagram
under the hood ?

What is the fuel pressure at the schrader valve on motor,
with & without the vacuum hose on pressure regulator?

Is the battery any good-test it

check for4 a faulty air pressure regulator in the system or faulty pressure relief valve.

There's a shutter valve to restrict air flow either before or after the air filter housing. In cold winter, this valve is closed as you start up the engine. As the engine area warms up, the shutter valve opens up to allow more air to flow into the intake manifold. In close position, the restriction in air flow results in rich fuel mixture. When its open, the fuel mixture is leaner. If it were locked in open position, you crank the cold engine and you get a lean mixture instead of a rich mixture to start up in cold mornings.

always start wit out accelerator .

Your battery is usually challenged in cold weather, you are right...to much trouble to remove to take in to warm up...Do you have a battery charger? My suggestion would be to jump start your Lincoln with another car battery...this will assure that your battery is not further damaged by being under charged in cold weather...drive to assure charging system ie alternator is working...taking the battery inside to warm will help to save your battery if it is just low on charge...taking inside will not ncecessarily re-charge your battery...in the summer, sometimes leaving hood up with sun on battery will slightly re-charge a low battery...:)

Count your blessings that it starts. It sounds like the cold air is affecting the idle mixture. Check the hose running from the manifold to the air box to see if it is intact. If not, replace/fix it so that you pull warm air in as soon as the engine heats up.

cable is fine,can be the tps but try tapping on the idle air valve and see if the idle kicks up,it works like a choke and if its stuck its a big vac leak
