Why is my 1985 s 10 2.8 engine so hard to start ?

I'll take your word for it. I live in the tropics so cold starting is not too much of a problem. I use to have a Barracuda that the previous owner disconnected the choke linkage. As I recall, the bimetal spring was located in the intake manifold. I'd have to idle the car for a while until the car warmed up. Beats the heck out of me why people want to disconnect an automatic choke.
