Question un responsive throttle

Anyone know what might cause my truck not to respond when I step on the accelerator. it seems to be a cold whether sensitive issue. when it warms up it gets better. but I could stand on it and it will just creep along for awhile then it seems to spool up.

Your EPBV on your turbo is staying closed. You can unplug the electical connection to check it.

I'll look for a pic to show you.
