My 96 Tahoe will spin over till sometimes kills the battery in the morning after sitting all night, it is worse when weather is cold. Once it runs a while it will start fine the rest of the day. The battery is new and the engine turns over good. I started putting on parts and so far have installed new plugs,distributer cap and rotter, coil and module. I checked the fuel pump pressure and is good. I checked the water temp senser and the air temp senser with ohm meter by a service manual . I decided to put a small amount of fuel on top of the throttle plate and it cranks right up in the morning. It runs fine once it starts. I have purchased a code scanner but am still reading how to use it. What do you think the problem is. Thanks Danny

Did you replace the fuel filter? What is the fuel pressure?
