Sometimes my car will not want to start. It will turn over and want to start if you pump the gas it will finally start and then spudder when you give it some gas for a while. Finally it will idle ok but then when driving after this it will spudder upon acceleration. It seems like once it warms up it is fine it just seems to happen on cold starts. Any idea whats going on?

tell me.
Is it hard to start in the morning, but once it runs, it is fine for the rest of the day, but once it sets for a few hours, or overnight, then it is hard to start again?
