I have replaced the plugs,
I took the MAF sensor off and gave it a spray with MAF cleaner,

Just wondering if anyone could give me a heads up.

What happens if you let the starter motor run a little longer? I ask because I am wondering if a leaky injector(s) is causing a slow build in adequate fuel pressure.It may be useful to monitor fuel pressure from a cold start.Suggest you Search for the specs and how/where to attach the fuel pressure tester if you think this is possibility.On an older car with lots of miles on the injectors it is plausible speculation.
