Hey Aaron,

I f you ca get your hands on a vacuum gauge, hook it up and i'll bet ya the
vacuum reads about 10" at idle on initial cold startup. If it does, turn off
the engine and pull the plugs. I'll bet ya one of them is a little bit wet.

I had the pretty much same problem and it turned out to be a leaky injector.
