Okay, put a couple of hundred miles on her the past month. Starting is still not nearly as good as it once was.
Here's a new vid:

At 00:26 I put her in gear and she just sputters and dies.
The thing is this only happens with an ice cold engine. If I give her a about 1 minute of idling, she has no issues going into gear. If I drive her to work and start her up again within 4 hours or so, she runs like she always did. If she sits for 8+ hours, she doesn't start with authority and has a tendency to just kinda sputter and die. She has the same amount of power she always had, and I can keep up with traffic just fine and cruise at 85mph all day long.
I am more than willing to start throwing parts at it, but like I mentioned before; I don't really know where to start.
I don't think it's glow plugs, as she seems to run on all cylinders just fine when she fires up. But maybe it could be glow plugs?
Could this be an injector issue? Should I have those rebuild? I already sent some PM's to Greazzer, and he's willing to do it.
Could this potentially be a timing issue?
Not visible on the video is the haze of smoke I'm getting when she runs cold. She's always smoked a bit when cold, but now there is quite a haze. Weirdly, it's not visible on the video when I get out of the car though.
For reference: It was 45f out.
