Default stiff accleration bewteen 10 and 20 mph

on a cold start after of 10 min warming up, i have a problem with the car going past 20mph. The gas pedel becomes stiff until i let go and press it again, than it goes. When the car reaches 30mph or more its ok, but anything between 10 and 20, the gas pedel is stiff. i had the tranny and the engine and the fuel pump looked at and its fine. i had the distrubutor cap, pcv valve, and main relay replaced. main relay was for a starting issue. But after the car has been driven for more than hour the whole entire problem goes away.

Thxs for the advice. sorry for the delay. brought it in to have it looked at and it seems to be fine (throttle body that is ) The car seems to respond better now, but only to aggressive driving. if i try to be nice to the car, the problem returns. But if i get aggressive with it in the morning, or anytime during the start of the car, than the problem doesnt exist.
