Disclosed is a pre-combustion chamber igniter, a methanol engine and a cold start control method thereof. The pre-combustion chamber igniter includes a housing, nozzles, a fuel injector, a spark plug and heating elements. The heating elements at outer surfaces of the nozzles can heat fuel spray sprayed to an inner wall of a pre-combustion chamber. According to the present disclosure, the pre-combustion chamber is heated using the heating elements during a cold start of the methanol engine, and an excess air coefficient of an interior of the pre-combustion chamber can be controlled between 0.8 and 1.0 to achieve ultra-lean combustion of the engine in a cold start state.
