Default Idling concerns

I have a 88 LX 5.0 here my problem. Once you start the car and drive for a while and stop and turn off once you restart it doesn't want to idle for about 5 minutes. After that good to go. Any ideas gentlemen.

Start with the easy stuff, components related to fuel air and fire, If that dosn't do anything maybe look into ACT and ECT sensors they can affect idling.
