I noticed after cold overnight, for few minutes the engine runs rough. I have taken to a mechanic and had routine tuneup, including new spark plugs but the problems continue.

Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.
When the plugs were changed were the plug wires changed? What gap did they gap the plugs at? The info on the hood says: .050, a new TSB states that plugs should be gapped at .040.

You mentioned a routine tune up, do you know what all services were preformed? Sorry for the questions, but it will help us determine possible fixes for your problem.
