Default New Member- 4.8L Stalling when cold

Hey guys new member here with my first post. I have a 2000 GMC Sierra 4.8L 4WD 5speed manual with 90K miles. I've been having problems with it stalling?? when its cold. It starts fine and idles normal but when a head down the road it acts like its flooded past half throttle, but seems runs fine if I keep my foot out of it. It goes away after a mile or so then runs fine. I recently changed the air filter and fuel filter but was thinking maybe new plugs might be the next step?? Any ideas

Thanks
