    My 1996 Volvo 850 wagon does not want to start at all in the morning,
    however when I plug in the block heater for half an hour it starts first
    shot and restarts fine all day. I changed the plugs, distributor, rotor
    and air filter. The car runs smooth, but this did not fix the starting
    problem. Any ideas?

    I had a similar case and getting a new battery helped.
