Intermittent Starting Problems 200 1987

When I got it towed into my regualar repair shop (usually pretty good/trustworthy), they said the oil had gas in it. So... they changed the oil, kind of leaving me with an empty feeling, like "Why didn't you narrow down why gas was in there in the first place, maybe?" So I got the car back and after 3 hours and about 3 trips, it wouldn't start, so I got it towed in again and that's where I stand now. He called and said the morning after I had it taken there (about 12 hours later and buried in snow) it cranked up right away. They've had it since, running errands, etc., and that's the last I've heard.

Anything else you can get from this?

By the way, I've cleaned the injectors with additives before, but never that techron stuff.
