Camaro Starting Problems

I have a 89 Camaro RS, it's got a 305 TBI. When i start the car after it's been sitting for a day or so or atleast enough time for the engine to completly cool off it starts at the first turn of the key. However, if i drive around then park it and start it up after a while the car will start then die. So I am wondering could this be a injector problem or something else with the fuel system? thanks...

usually a fuel delivery problem will be worse the longer you let it sit, more time for fuel to leak around an injector or preasure to bleed off. have you tried trouble shooting? found anything? tune up good, no codes?

So far i have done a small amount of troubleshooting because i am not sure where the problem area is and i am not very familiar with fuel systems. I have however found that my oxygen sensor is bad and doesn't work at all which leads the service engine soon light to come on. Other than that I have been unable to locate the problem.
