JJ,

On numerous occasions of which I am to embarrassed to explain (left door ajar, lights on etc.), I have to jump my car afterwards it has run like crap for a day or so and then returned to its normal well running self. One quicker sure that I found is to let the car idle for 15 minutes or so after jumpstarting and this seems to shorten the "healing process". I know this sounds silly but assume that the computer needs time to learn to adjust to the enivronment-any other suggetstions from anybody?

Taylor
