intermittent start 850 1995

You most likely also have a new thermostat, with that new coolant temp sensor...what you were experiencing was most likely a stuck open thermostat. No, I don't think your problem is going to have anything to do with your transmission heat. You said that when your car doesn't want to start that you have spark, if the problem were the rpm sensor, you wouldn't have spark. Have you checked that front relay and the wires in the connector to that front relay yet? The cleaning of the body ground could have fixed it...I've had ground problems kick my fanny on numerous occasions.
