Default 7.3 cold miss

I have a 97 powerstroke. Starts good but when you take off it will miss a couple times. Not bad just a couple times till it warms up. An th ideas? Wanna figure it out before it gets worse and leaves me stranded in the cold. Thanks

Has the crankshaft sensor been replaced any time? Second guess would be something with fuel delivery.

Mine misses pretty badly in cold weather. Pretty sure it's the fuel injector seals. Once it's warm, it's good to go. Revving the engine in neutral doesn't often clear it up but if I accelerate hard I can feel the cylinder(s) start firing. Might be something to consider for your truck.
