I turned the car back on, and turned it back off. It was still doing this....I turned it on again and it started up normal. Does anyone kow what could've caused this??

Oh dieseling, ok, didn't know that. I believe the problem is a clogged AIC valve. Does anyone know where I can find it?

You may also want to check the seals on your ignition control mod. I saw something similar happen on a Crown Vic (about the same year). Turned out that water had gotten inside and shorted the controls.
