I have the same problem! Except my tstat is stock. My starts, dies, then I start it again, and runs fine! No SES or check gauges. Doesn't seem to be doing any harm, but it's weird

Mines done that before too, after running my power wire for my amp. I had to let it sit over night before I could get it to actually run.

It's odd
