Yes, I don't know how long it must sit to cool. The shortest period I have tried is 7 hrs. Then as long as it is not shut off it will run at 75% (limited boost it seems) until shut down again. Today it sat for no more than 10 min and when restarted and accelerated above idle at all it misses badly. I can't drive above what it creeps at without problems. What happens at a hot restart to cause this transformation... I too am scratching my head
