Car doesnt like to start when warm
Why when my car is warm does it take upwards of 15tiems to get started? When cold or near cold, it starts right up. It runs perfect and boosts perfect, only problem is with start up. Can anyone tell me what this may be? Thanks alot

Ive never heard of this happening before except w/ flooding. Fuel would be your number one culprit, but you say that youve gotten that taken care of. I would definately change your plugs if you havent lately, that would be my next bet, along w/ the wires.

Mine does the same thing, it will run perfectly fine no matter how much I boost, but if I shut the car off for literally 5 seconds then try to start it again it won't start until about 20-30 minutes later. Here's a list of stuff I'm going to check...
Compression
Pressure Regulator Control Valve
Intake Air Temp Sensor
Water Thermo Sensor
Fuel Pressure/Fuel Pump/Fuel Pump Wiring/Fuel Filter
TPS
Timing
Spark Plugs
Spark Plug Wires
Coils
AFM
ECU
It says how to check most of that stuff in the FSM
