After several months of investigation #848 lives. I was having the hot start issue. Replaced most all of the fuel system and most of the electronics. In the end, I think it was the ignition switch, the switch had a burned out contact, it would sometime read 12 volts, when hot 9.2 volts. Bottom line, you gotta drive them. 3500 miles over 21 years has yielded an amazingly original car! But all the sitting is not good.

Did I mention that it is going to be 80F tomorrow, then 70s through the weekend in Florida!! Why do people love up North again?
 
Gotta work in Orlando today, it is going to be 83 there. The worst thing about it is dealing with I-4.
