my 93 wrx did this after an oil change. i left it running for 20 mins and it cleared.
it still sticks now and then but generally clears after a few seconds now.
my main advise is NEVER use an engine flush. this will kill a scooby engine.
sriped it down today and found that exhast shims r not as free as the rest so cam out AGAIN and reset them so i hope it all works tomorrow fingers crossed
