Default idling issue

i'm having this idling problem. what happens is. you go for a ride and you stop some where. oit can be fo 5 min. or a couple of hours. the you go the start the car and it won't stay at idle. it just dies. the next day it will repeat it's self. start fine, go for a ride, the boom. there's no code from the computer. i've checked that. this was my fathers car and i've inherited it. i remember him saying he had a problem with this. he had new injectors and a complete tune up just three years ago. other than that. i don't know more. i would like some help from everyone here before i put myself to the mercy of one of the local shops.
