cold start good, but...
I just had my oil changed and my radiator flushed about a week ago in my '91 L98, and my injectors are less than 2 years old, but for some reason my car is not starting very well. When I cold start it in the morning it roars like a beast, but after it sits at the office for a few hours, it sometimes wont even start on the first go round. this didnt happen until the oil/radiator deal. it might have an occational bad start up, sounding rough, turning a few times before it caught, but yesterday it took my 3 tries to get it going. Is there any relation to the oil/radiator work? or do i need to check the entire ignition system?
any help would be awesome,

I'd check fuel pressure next and see how quickly the pressure bleeds off after being shut down. You can search on fuel pressure and probably find lots of instructions for isolating the weak link in the fuel system - if it does turn out to be fuel pressure related.
