Early 99 with superchip microtuner Problem

I have a early 99(Jan) psd.I installed a superchip micro tuner and now when the truck is cold usually in the first 1 to 2 miles after leaving home the engine jerks like its not getting fuel for about 5 seconds then it clears up and will not do it again until I start out cold again.It only does this 1 time per every cold start.Any ideas what this might be?
