Do you have adequate power, gas mileage and does it boost easily?
I dont think you have a fuel problem then. or a warm start problem per say since you say it starts most of the time.

how does it idle warm, cold, in gear, neutral, park?

it sounds like the idle control motor is not doing its job entirely. IE when the car is put in Reverse or drive.
that is what I would check

take care

hope this helps
