Question 97 psd acceleration problem

my fathers 97 power stroke has a funny problem its not hard to start but after sitting for a few days it doesnt want to accelerate right after started everthing sounds normall it just dosnt have any power for a few seconds after 30 seconds of driveing it kicks in and goes.Once its warm or has been drove a little it doesnt do it.He also has a super chip but i dont think it has any thing to do with it.very strong truck just does this right after startup sometimes?
