An oddity that I should mention is that the car was started and moved a few hours after my long drive. It never got hot going up the hill and drove fine. There wasn't any abnormal amount of smoke at any time as well. Positive thinking here as I wait to hear from the shop.

I really hope that because I didn't have time to pull the plugs and check them by hand that this is the problem.

Do they got warm to the touch on the outside when you warm them up? That's one thing I was wondering about.
