4Runner Check Engine Light

I have a '94 4Runner SR5 v6 4x4 that the check engine light flashes like crazy when I try a warm start. It turns over fine but will not start. I noticed If I turn the key off and on once or twice the light stops and she starts easily. I have heard how to check the codes on these with a wire, connecting 2 slots in the diagnostic box under the hood. That just makes the light flash faster. I've cleared the codes by pulling the computer fuse. And the light immediatly started flashing when I turned the key the first time. After that it was fine for about 3 days and it is back. It starts a little hesitantly when cold but it does start. It's only after it gets hot or running temp. Any suggestions? I have contemplated taking it in, but that's my last resort. I had a bad experience when I took it in for the recalled head gaskets. They dented the crap out of my radiator and claimed it leaked before they started on it.
