i spray carburator cleaner in the intake manifold, then it runs fine (rich but fine) and once its warmed up itll start on its own until it cools down. i put the car in a shop (mistake) they had no idea what they were doing and had no idea about the wiring and said they guessed it was the ecu, im doubtful about this since it runs fine just wont start. this all started after i drove 45 mins and the turbo timer was on for 4 minutes, longer than its ever been on since i bought the car. when i started it up it was bogging down, then when i turned it off it never wouldnt start again unless doing the aforementioned. any suggestions?

I think he meant the coolant temperature sensor.
