That depends on whether your fuel injectors need cleaning or your plugs and wires need replacing. The plugs have a mileage replacement recommendation in your owners manual , the fuel injectorcleaning and plug wires would be as needed. You could try a bottle of fuel injection cleaner in the gas tank.

When it’s cold out and I first start it it feels like it’s misfiring.

If it hasn’t already been done recently, a general tune-up would be where to start. I’m presuming this has a conventional distributor with electronic ignition. So replace the plugs, spark plug wires, dizzy cap, ignition rotor, and engine air filter. Might want to add in a new fuel filter, make a clean go of it. Good idea above to run a can of aftermarket fuel injector clean through too.
