Fuel filter change is not in service schedule for petrol engines so it's probably have never been changed.

Is it maybe loosing fuel pressure, leaking air in fuel system when parked for prolonged periods of time. Or leaking injector slowly letting fuel in manifold which builds up while stationary and causes mixture to be too rich at startup until it vents out.

Or possibly one of temperature sensors is giving wrong readings.
