Volks... Daddeo went into the shop to have front rotors replaced yesterday.  While we were at it I had my guys check out an intermittent problem I've been having with the engine.  Occasionally she will misfire terribly, lose almost all power, spitting and coughing.  Letting up on the gas usually helps.  Once she gets over this spell, she goes right back to running smoothly.  Often this happens within the first block of driving... sometimes later on.  It has become more frequent.

My mech said he changed the coolant temperature sensor (whatever that is) and she has run perfectly ever since, but it has only been a day.  Part was cheap... only $35.  Labor to change was inconsequential.  Will it solve the problem... time will tell.

I was just wondering about other's experiences with this part.  I've never heard about it before and I've been following this list for the past year.  Anybody?
