Sounds like the injectors; if they are the original Multitecs they are garbage, especially when warm...they can be tested though before replacing them just in case

replace fuel filter,run a can of sea fome fuelinjector cleaner in a tank of gas.dose it have a ses light on.

Sometimes the coil under the distributer go's bad and it will give prob with idling but as joe said the original factory injectors are junk.
