Post 85 CFI Mustang won't idle

My '85 Mustang has always had a rough idle when hot-started. After a few minutes of driving, it would go away. The last couple of days, it hasn't gone away. Very rough idle, and the motor dies after 10-20 seconds. I have to floor the gas to get it to restart. Lots of hesitation under throttle. I've sprayed the throttle body down with carb cleaner, run a bottle of injector cleaner, and checked for vacuum leaks. EGR valve was replaced 2 years ago. I've heard other guys with CFI engines complain of similar symptoms. Anyone have an idea what the problem could be? Thanks for your help. Joe
