Steven,

I'm have a 1228746 ECM (F body TBI) and I've run into a few quirky
things like this.  My first code (which I can't remember) said I had a
bad O2 sensor.  Checked it and replaced.  no more codes.  then outta the
blue I get a code very much like your scenario.  no code unless I drive
for say 5 minutes from a cold start (like in AM).  if I shut it down and
restart. code gone.  code was for a rich condition and points to the
EVAP can.  Solenoid checks out good and I put a new filter in the purge
can.  Still get a code every so often but no regularly.  I even got in
the habit of driving with my scan tool connect so I could snap a scan of
the conditions if it happened.

I dunno?  Ideas anyone?
