Simple terms - a hunk of metal (or other thing) starts out at ambient temperature. It's exposed to other another temperature that warms (or cools) the surface. As time goes on, the head (or cold) evens out throughout the metal and the thing is "heat soaked". If you take away the source of the heat (or cold), the part will remain hot (or cold) for quite some time as it gives off the heat (or cold) that has "soaked" in the metal.......
if he was talking about your car i think he was talking ****, saying its a useless piece of metal

so thats what he meant it as? a useles pos? this is wat i told him...
"My motor sometimes feels this real small lack of power. its great at one point, then when i turn it off and come back in 5 min and drive again it feels different. its a similar change in feeling to when i turn my A/C on then off."
then he said,
"Maybe you have a hot soak situation that is allowing the fuel to boil in the rail, but that would clear up fairly fast. Maybe a coolant temperature sensor or air temperature sensor is causing it to revert to cold start mode for a while."

Fuel boiling in the lines under the hood is more properly called vapor lock. Like most fuel injected cars, it really can't happen on a 95 Civic since the fuel is forced to recirculate back to the tank (which remains relatively cool) all the time.

mk378 just said that it wasn't what is happening because it's not possible the way your fuel system is designed. It can't be what your problem is.
