Wow. No. Sorry. If the heat caused the resistance, where did the heat come from?
Unsubscribed. No point in trying to help. The OP won't listen, and 95% of the advice is utter nonsense.

Well since you'r quoting me I'll clarify my statement and answer your question, since I was referring to a hot start condition which does not exist when the engine is cold, the heat comes from the exhaust and engine block. It's fact that heat increases resistance and limits current flow.
