If you let the engine idle until it warms up, does the idle improve? If you push the throttle pedal, does the engine run smoothly or does it run rough?

You might want to check the ignition timing with a timing gun. Make sure to jump the service connector during the procedure. With the engine warm and idling, the pointers should align with the red mark (middle in group of three) on the crank pulley.
