Mine does the same thing. I haven't done anything about it yet because I just got the car a little while ago, and it's bloody freezing out. My plan was to inspect the entire ignition system:

-test ICM and coil with multimeter
-inspect cap, rotor and overall condition of dizzy (inside)
-measure resistance on wires
-inspect connectors on wires for corrosion or poor contact
-inspect spark plugs

That's my plan when I have a half hour free on a nicer day... good luck to ya!
