need help with hesitation problem

I have a 2000 gp gt with 3.8 L and 150,000 miles on it. Recently ive been having a hesitation problem where i have no power and it acts like it wants to stall, otherwise idles just fine. It only happens when the engine is cold and in gear. after a few minuts of warming up, problem goes away completely and doesnt come back. which i find more odd is if it sits for a period of 15 min or more, problem comes back until engine is warmed up enough again. i unplugged the maf sensor to see if that would have any effect, but with no luck. cleaned the tbody and all sensors inside but that didnt fix it either. a mechanic told me it could be dirty injectors, faulty maf, faulty coolant temp sensor, and a number of other problems. not going to rule any of those things out, but would anybody in here know what would cause this specific problem? ses light dont come on and doesnt pull a code. dont want to pay some ahole hundreds of $s to fix something i can do myself. any suggestions?
