95% it's the distributor. there is an O ring inside the distributor which hardens after certain time. when it hardens it leaks the oil from cylinder head and floods the photocensor of your distributor. when your engine is warm oil goes up to cylinder head. worm oil penetrates small gaps much better than cold oil. so when your engine is worm your distributor gets flooded. when it cools down oil goes back into oil pan. you need to replace distributor. a lot of people had bad experience with non dealership distributor(breaks after 90 days). my distributor is from autozone and I have no problems for 2 years. in dealership you will pay around 350$.
try napa autoparts, they sell good parts.
