Something to think about: if the engine has a lot of miles on it, the problem could be caused by the build up of carbon on the back of the intake valves. When started up the carbon "absorbs" some of the fuel and thus the engine goes lean untill the carbon is saturated with fuel. Once the engine is hot and then is allowed to sit for some time the fuel will evaporate off of the carbon and the process starts all over again. Sounds strange but it does happen. And it may not be the case here, but it is a possibility.
