Bob(s):  I think Mark on the right track.  Sounds like an injector that
is dirty and is sticking until the car warms up. Injector failure is
largely due to build-up of deposits.  Wax and/or varnish deposits can
cause slow or erratic operation.

If Marks swap trick moves the miss, then you have your answer.  The
solution is either some in-car injector cleaning fluid (added to the
fuel tank) OR taking them all out and having them flow tested and
cleaned in an ultrasonic cleaner bath at an injector cleaning/repair
service.

Come to think of it, Bob Myers is running "new" (probably rebuilt)
Lucas Delphi 37# injectors so all bets may be off.
