hot starting woes.........aaaaarrrrrrrgggggghhhhhhhhh!!!



You needed a fuel pump. Good work. Now, the other problems, have you checked 
the screen in the tank? Did you put a new fuel filter in when you did the 
pump? If you didnt then do those things now! Then after you have gotten thos 
eout of the way then check the duty cycle on the frequency valve for the 
fuel mixture. Make sur eht eengine is warm when you do this. Also, make sure 
you hear a buzzing noise coming from the fuel distributor area. If you do 
not have this buzzing noise then you might have a problem with your O2 
sensor relay. GL! and LMK what you find.
