89 bronco 302 accelleration hesitation after warm start.

I' new to the site and I own an 89 Eddie Bauer bronco with a 302. I have done alot of work recently to my truck but I had this condition before doing the work. I replaced the waterpump, timing set, starter, starter rely, made a full exhaust since the previous owner chopped it at the cat, plugged the thermactor ports and installed electric fans. But I still have a hard start and poor accelleration at lower rpm ONLY after warm starts. If I start it from cold and drive it' fine. But if I drive it for say 10 15 miles and stop I have a hard time starting and accelleration. Any help would be great. I think it's the temp sensor I replaced it about a year ago but I suppose it could be bad.

Let your computer tell you what it knows;
Engines are easier to diagnose over the internet when all the codes are listed, and in order of test.
KOEO - (O) Self-Test Codes =
KOEO - (C) Continuous Codes =
KOER - (R) Self-Test Codes =
