Cold start problem

problem with my gti 8v gz.

Its hard to start when its cold. I have to use a "startgas" to help it start. Ive unplugged the coldstart valve contact and used a multimeter but it seem dead. It only went to 0.89v when it should go to 9v?
My questions are. Where does the wires goes? Is it a ground issue? Are there any relay to this? Ive read there is a relay 43/53??
I took relay 43 out once beacuse my watertemp went crazy. Does this have anything to do with this?
