Default OK, gearhead Z guys....

Today I took her out for a spin, and had her parked for about 1/2 hr or so.
when I got in to start her, she resisted the first time (never happened before)
But 2nd attempt she started right up. Drove a mile or so, and BAM.. Limp mode. VDC light on steady, and CEL.
Got her home, and OBD said P0443 evap purge valve, and P2138 APP sensor.
Total of 8 codes, both listed 4 times????? strange.
Cleared codes, and started her up, drove about 1 mile, same thing.
Disconnected battery, reset ecu, drove her 10 or so miles.. All good.
Shut her off, and restarted........ Limp mode again.
Cleared codes with scanner, and started shopping for APP assembly.
Started her up 2 hours later, drove 15 or so miles, no issues.. shut her off, and restarted about 5 times, all good.
Now, Do I spend the $$$$ for the new APP, or could it have been a fluke thing?
I've got a big weekend coming up, and would hate to get stranded if it pops back up again.
What is the likelihood it may not rear its ugly head again? Should I bite the bullet and just buy the expensive bastard?
