Cold rough diesel

Has anyone figured out what's causing the 6.0 to run rough when it's cold? Seems like mine is taking longer now to lean out or rn6 better.

Probably something with the fuel timing. High pressure pump internal leakage? Injection pressure to low causing bad spray pattern.

Do the glow plugs and injectors if your really worried about it.

Those engines are trouble..

Best advise would be sell that thing before it blows!
