starts, but won't restart

Well, I did get the car to start. However if you run it for a bit and then shut it off, it doesn't want to start again untill it cools down. Any ideas?

for a warm engine, try starting it with the throttle all the way open

I think you hot start assist is disconnected. It opens the throttle when starting if the engine is warm.

Hard hot starts can be a sign of poor timing too. Might be worth checking...
