Car runs fine from one destination to another with a period of 2 or 3 hours between driving. A 30 minute period leads to the check engine light coming on with a very low rpm idle (500 rpm and variable). Gun it a little and the check engine light goes off and does not come on again. I'm thinking a new ECM?
