HI Rich, We have the same issue... Seems to be heat related, Car starts and then shuts down right away... After it cools, it seems to be OK until ya need it!?!?!?!?!?

Darn thing failed at the DMV inspection today, Holy crap!!!!!

Coolant Temp showed 199, failed to start... When coolant dropped to 188, it started up. Drove five miles, temp was back up to 194, and it failed to start again.

So, where is this pin and plug thingie??? Which side of car, can ya show a picture????

I wish I would have taken pictures of everything. I didn't realize that this seemed to be a common problem. Start with the fuse box under the hood. Under it there are several plugs. The plug closest to the fire wall is the one you are after. On the wire side of the plug look for a grey wire. It will be on the driver's side of the plug. Do not unplug the fuse box. Just push the wire into it's place. On hot days the car would not start when the car was driven and completely warmed up. After the car would sit for an hour the car would start right up.
