Hrm check the level of your coolant? As cold air will make you have less coolant when you start up. Don't know if anyone else could chime in.
Also did you put some fuel additives in? Something to make sure your gas doesn't have any moisture in it? Something like Gas Dry. Water in your fuel system could freeze during the night.

when i went out to my car after work, it did this shit the whole way home. i'm talking like 35 miles. when i come to a stop, i can hear it sorta poppin and missing. Then when i take off, sometimes it sputters and shii. i really need to get this fixed tonight. car has a new fuel pump, new fuel filter, plugs, wires, and plenty of coolant.
it doesn't seem to do it once i get up to speed....
Distributor cap and rotor. if not then it might be the ignition timing. My car was doing the same thing. i changed mad sh*t and one day i advanced the distributor timing and it stopped.if thats the problem get your hands on a timing gun and redue the timing belt w/ the gun. thats if u have to advance the distributor alot more then in the middle mark.
