Its call a "heat soak" when you go to the the store on a warm day and leave you car off the electrical parts inside the car heat up more because of the lack off cooling because there is no fan running.

So when you come back the RPMs rise or the car will surge which is dangerous or there will be other side effects.

Well if it did it once then no,

But if it does it again then yes just check for transmission codes and ECU codes maybe even TCS codes then if none of them show anything an you still have that problem then see a dealer.

Do what I am going to do, Get them to do a full checkup with consult (And they better do it for 80 bucks cause that what they told me) Then just fix the problems your self but at least then you will know what the problem is.

Q45Tech pleas tell me when they say they will do a full checkup would you know what they do I mean do they do everything in the FSM or do they just go by the consult menu and just do what ever the consult lets them do?

Post

dealer charged me $129. They did not ohm test anything, just power balance.

their estimate: replace all injectors AND all coils: $3,000Their "company policy" was to suggest ALL coils and injectors.

said it would take 2 MONTHS to get the parts, because they would have to "get one at this dealer, one at that dealer" etc,. "from all over the country."

this car was dealer serviced since new (165,000 miles), at another dealer out of town.

FOR WHAT IT IS WORTH:my owner's manual (1991) says to "depress the gas pedal 1/2 way on hot re-starts"
