Hello, once again I'm having problems with my 1998 oldsmobile 88 royale with a 3.8 motor. The problem that I'm having is after I start the car and drive it for a while until it gets hot, it's fine. After I shut the car off, it runs real rough and stalls, it runs fine unless I turn it off. When I try to accelerate and give it gas, it sputters and then stalls. After it sits overnight and I'm assuming after it cools down, it starts right up. I checked to see if it's getting fuel from the pressure relief valve and It's definately getting fuel. The car is not overheating or anything like that. I changed the fuel filter and plugs, because it had done that once before so I figured that it was a dirty fuel filter. Any suggestions team?

borrow a fuel pressure tester from a autoparts store (loan-a-tool program) and post what your pressures are when it's acting up. engine light on? if so what are the codes.
