Are these symptoms similar to the effect of a coolant temp sensor going bad? I vaguely remeber threads that sounded a lot like this tied to that topic.

Alternative - some people are complaining of rough running and stray codes tied to the new Ethanol gas mix that was just put into the pumps a few weeks ago - apparently there are some studies that suggest that this stuff willcause driveability problems, expecially witholder cars, and cars with some dirt in tehfuel system (it is a strong cleaner, supposedly). Any thoughts?
