[DMCForum] Hot Start Fixed?

[Samuel <samuel_yahoo@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I have been tracing down a hot start issue and running issues on my car 
for a year now. I stumbled across a few things that was giving me 
trouble today, with help from Walter.

Figured out that my idle speed motor was stuck 1/2 way open. As a 
result, I would be running fine at idle, but then hit the gas and would 
run too lean, almost stalling the engine. There is question about my 
oxygen sensor, although the readings appear fine. The other is that my 
thermotime switch was bad. This would result in my cold start valve 
running when the engine was warm. The end result was flooding the engine.

Hopefully, I'll have the engine running without the hotstart, as a 
result, I'll be able to drive and actually get other projects done on 
the car, like getting my interior back in.
