Default 928 slight miss at idle in gear

Hello. I have a basically stock 1986 1/2 928 with a 32v 5.0 automatic. i have the original stock injectors, new plugs, wires, cap&rotors. When the vehicle is started and then put in gear at idle there is a miss feeling. It will idle for 15 seconds then miss. and over. put it in park and its gone. I've heard of injectors. but lets be realistic its hard on the 32v engines to test injectors with a noid light unless you take it apart. any ideas? It doesnt feel like like every revolution there is a miss but its there thats why i ruled out ignition. Plus i did a stall test in gear and it does not miss. it doesnt miss when accelerating. Just when idling in gear. I was playing with the symptom by just shifting the shifter between neutral and drive and it was no miss, miss, no miss, miss. ughhhhhh. Help!

yep that would have been my suggestion to get the MAF rebuilt,
Remember its not a plug and play you still need to set the idle and then adjust the MAF
See Porkens Blinkr
NOTE you may also need to install a new 02 sensor use factory parts here
