Having a problem on warm days or when car engine is already hot. If I am driving for awhile and then I stop somewhere for a short time and go to start the engine again,it does not want to start,I have to keep my foot on the gas or the car will stall. Sometimes I have to let it run for 20 min. to 40 min. in idle and the one time this happened you can hear the engine wanting to stall and then all of a sudden the engine kicks in and the engine is back to normal and then I could drive away. The last time this happened though I had it running for an hour and it never got better. Then I left the engine off for an hour and then when I went to start it it started ok and I was able to drive away. Do you know what could be the problem with my engine?

do this and count the flashes...Count the flashes, a 22 will flash as 2 flashes then a short pause, then 2 flashes, if more than one code is stored, the pause will be longer. The codes will display three times and end with 11 or 111. Write them down and post here.
