The cold start injector should activate when you run the starter
................
Look for a poor electrical connection.
I've had mine unplugged during some testing and after the engine has been
started a few times it doesn't seem to make much difference but on
initial morning startup it is necessary.
If you test it I'd use about 9v rather than 12v.
