warm weather = no acceleration

Ok...here is my problem...anytime the weather turns warm and humid my 93 Bronco 302 starts to have problems. It gets really sluggish and will not accelerate well at all. It sometimes acts as though it will go dead and it has no power. This sometimes occurs immediately after a cold start. Anyone have any idea what could be causing this? Ive had it hooked up to the computers and they cant find anything wrong. I also had a clogged CAT replaced...that wasn't the problem. Im not sure where to go from here. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Humid you say? When was the last time you changed the dist cap and wires? The F series are prone to erratic running when their caps get old. Have you checked for vacuum leaks?
