Strange Cold Weather Sputter

I've got a problem I can't find much information on. My 96 4x4 PSD with the ZF 5 speed starts fine even when it cold out so GPs and GPR are working fine. Idles fine for a few minutes in the driveway and runs ok for the first few minutes driving. After a half mile or two of driving it starts to sputter like its not getting fuel. The problem is intermittent and goes away once it hits operating temperature, problem only happens on mornings below freezing. I drop RPMs and occasionally it dies, starts up again immidieatley though. It happens on both tanks and over multiple tanks of fuel all winter. Fuel filter is in good shape

Any insight is appreciated, its annoying more than anything but I would like to know what I'm dealing with.

Thanks all.

Dan

Check your fuel pressure and inspect your uvch plug in for burnt pins.
