Hot Start Help

Hey guys just got a New TII did some searching but couldnt come up with anything helpful... I dont care if someone even just posts a link to another thread that can help me thats fine too...

I have an 88 TII just got it... it starts up fine then I can run it for as lon as i want and it runs perfect... then if I stop and shut it off for a minute or two I have to wait a while to restart it

ANY help would be fine...

Thanks

Well not sure if this applies to you, but i had a similar problem and from what i could work out. It was because the previous owner replaced the radiator hoses with a softish rubber one, so when it got hot it would expand and the engine stalls sometimes without warning. Although im not completely sure about if thats whats causing my problem.

Is there no one else? I have heard that this is kinda one of those "normal" things for an FC?

Well nothing like that should be normal for any car, rotaries are very tempperamental cars, but that doesn't mean that they **** up without a cause.
