Surging on hot starts

For the several years I've owned my truck about 75% of the time when I start it hot/warm the idle will surge/buck/instantaneously rev for a few times upon startup. What could be the cause of this? Originally I heard it may be the IPR but that wasnt the problem. Different things I've tried include a new CPS, new IPR, fresh oil, checked HPOP resivoir and its full when cold, fuel pressure is good. Don't know what else to look at. ICP sensor?

Unplug the ICP sensor , look for oil seeping from it to start ...

My vote is low fuel pressure on hot/warm start up.
