My '95 85- wagon also won't start sometimes, usually on cooler mornings (<55 deg. in So. Cal.) after driving the car a short distance, going in for groceries or whatever, then trying to start it again to return home. Playing with the shift override button and the gear shifter and putting it in neutral seems to help, but it's frustrating because it takes about 2 - 5 min. of such "playing" to get it to start. If, instead of going a short distance before stopping and trying to restart, I go further initially (3+ miles?), it starts fine.

I'm also having some tranny problems which I think may be related to the above problems. Tranny light flashes (sometimes) and the check engine light stays on (always) and the car has a hard time shifting out of 3rd until the car has been driven a while that day. A mechanic changed the tranny fluid and reset the code which curred the problem for a few weeks, but the problem is back again.

Any help is much appreciated.
