Default 1993 Legend stumbling when warm

Just wondering if you guys might be able to help. The car drives fine and the engine will start and run fine when its cool. If the cars sits for a couple hours it will start no problem. When the motor warms up and you stop the car and restart, thats when it stumbles and has a hard time starting. If you let it set for a while, it will start fine again.

Anyone have any idea? It it not throwing any codes and no CEL

93 legend? lol. headgaskets, dude.

i'm not saying that's what it is for sure, but i've seen more than a few come in with runnability problems, and sure enough.. headgaskets.

if you do them, make sure to get the knock sensors unplugged or you'll break 'em. real easy to do.
