Maybe plugs, maybe coolant temp sensor >>>

Hard starting in the morning is a common problem, search and you'll find many discussions about it.

Turn the ignition on, don't start it, give it a second or two, then start. It should fire right up.

When you turn the key, wait for the "OK" signal to show in the display, then start it. The fuel pump needs a second or two to pressurize the fuel line.
