1997 4.3LX Starting Problem

Since new I have always started cold by pushing throttle all the way forward a couple times and then pulling back to mid throttle to start. Always started fine. Lately I have been having trouble starting hot or cold in the full or mid throttle positions. Will only start in the idle throttle position. Starts fine, but sometimes stalls because of being at such low rpm and being cold. Otherwise engine runs great.. Any ideas on how to correct?

Idle RPMs in gear should 600-650 RPMs; adjust the idle screw when engine is warm, in gear and tied to the dock.
