Starting problem

I have a 2001 SD CC SB PSD 47K with Microtuner instaled that doesn`t start well on cold mornings 30 degrees or less.I turn key on wait for light to go out then start motor,will start then run very ruff rev up down between 500-800 rpm then stall. Recycle plugs then start again sometime same thing sometime will idle smooth.After the start it will run good all day and start fine. Last winter did this maybe once a month on real cold mornings 10-15 degrees without pluging in if pluged in always starts fine.
Someone suggested that 1or2 glow plug maybe bad how do I test?
Or maybe fuel filter filter was change at 40K.
Any help would be apprecated.
