Could be a number of things. How mechanical are you? the first things (in order) I would try:
1. Pull and clean your egr valve - while you are at it, clean the intake manifold, EBP tube, MAP sensor hose.
2. pull and clean turbo if #1 doesn't help.
Keep us informed.

Yes I am mechanicaly inclied and I will check those items as far as the geling of the fuel it happens in 80 degree weather was born on a farm so know about fuels Im thinking it is the egr vale because the turbo spools up it just wont roll out untill its warmed up then I have to be good or it looks for traction and will run like a scared rabbit
