In addition to this previous problem, I'm now also experiencing a new one. When the car is hot, periodically it will start and then run really, really weak. It might run for a few seconds or a minute or two, but it will have no power, and giving it gas doesn't help. I'll turn the key off, start it again, and it runs fine. It started this a week or two ago. It used to only happen once, and then would run okay. Today I had to restart it 5 times. Though that could be explained by the fact that I had a guest in the car.
