Default Starting problem

When I start my car, sometimes it initially stalls, or will dip really low in the rpms and then shoot up so it doesn't stall.

Do I need a fuel filter or something?

Default It only does it in the mornings after it's been sitting all night

As of recently it no longer stalls, just dips in the rpms. Maybe it will gradually fix itself
