Well that is the hotstart issue that alot of rotary owners have at some point and time.
You could have low compression, leaky injectors(s) or possibly a vaccum leak(s).
Those are the typical problems that cause it so might check with those issues and go from there.

I believe Icemark had some thing to say about Hot start issues.Maybe look into his previous Posts??..I'm guessing the Coolant sensor on the rad for some Stupid reason...(as I said it's a guess!)
