Questions regarding, starting, stoping, and starting the car again.

Hey i have an 1988 t2 that i rebuild myself, i'v removed all emissions and have block off plates. I'v removed oil metering pump, and am running remix. I have a problem with starting, stoping, and starting that car again. In the morning after i have let the car sit over night it will start up fine. If i drive it around for a little while, then let it sit so it goes back to normal operating tempture then turn it off, i can restart the car for a few hours or so. Im positive its not flooding, cause i turn the car off by a fuel cut switch. I'm thinking it may be some sensor malfuntioning, but any thoughts on my problem would be very much appreciated.

even if you shut it off by the fuel cut switch, might be flooding with coolant. any smoke out the back?

compression is around 95 or so, its a rebuild with non-resurfaced houseings, and its only got 50 miles or so on it.

and no im not leaking coolant into the combustion area, my spark plugs are dry when i pull them to see if any gas has flooded them.

I think it may be a sensor im missing or not connected. there are a few that i don't have connected. im just not all too sure which and where.
