Problems at warm start 200 1989

This is a tough one I think. I think it unlikely to be the head gasket, or fuel pump, O2 sensor maybe. But if the O2 sensor I would think it would occur whether you stopped or not.
I'd guess the engine is flooding when you stop the second time. Perhaps a leaky injector dumps fuel in during the stop, and it is too rich upon restart.
Only other mechanism may be a faulty engine temperature sensor, which is open or reads too high and is making the ECU run too rich.
How is your gas mileage?
