Run fuel pressure and flow tests, check for lean codes, run live data scan for cam and crank sensor accuracy.

So bucking occurs after engine has warmed up and the cycle begins over again after restarts. As the engine is still warm when restarted and that clears out the system for another round, I'd suspect that you just have a bad O2 sensor (front) that resets with each startup.
