On cold mornings after i crank up and begin driving the engine almost seems like it is running out of fuel and does not rev smoothly. After it is warm it does not do it. It only does this for maybe 10 min off and on, then it quits. Thanks in advance for any input!
It could be the normal operation of the exaust back pressure valve, that is used to help heat up the motor faster, it makes it feel like the motor is holding back....

It's more like a sputter and the engine does not run smoothly when accelerating . But as soon as it a little warm it does not do it. The EBPV would be more constant and result in a hissing sound...correct?

When is the last time that you chnged your fuel filter? As the fuel is thicker when cold it may have more trouble getting past a partially clogged fuel filter...?
