I would check injectors, they may be siphoning gas into the cylinders after you shut the car down.

No Kidding? Wow, would never have thought a temp sensor could do that. I suppose being everyting is computer controlled now, just about anything can happen.


Thanks for the update.

The temp sensor can cause many hard start, no start, and bad running problems it's not funny. It is what sends info to the computer that tells it to turn the cooling fan on or off. It tells the computer the engine operating temp. If the computer thinks the engine is cold it sends more fuel. If it thinks the engine is hot it sends less fuel. If the temp sensor has been seeping also replace the conntector.
