• Hot Start Problem. Any advice is appriciated. •
(also posted in general tech)
My fd doesn't like to start up once the car is hot. The car will start fine when is cold, but after there is heat in the motor, and i try to start it, it will crank over trying to start but will not fire over until the car is running at about 160 degrees.
There is fuel pressure when we try to start the car after its hot.
We've replaced:
Any advice is good advice at this point.
Thanks guy.

The FRP was replaced. the solenoid was replaced as well.
We just ran a compression check this morning, and at sitting cold temperatures, we are reading only around 75 - 80 in both cylinders, which i realize is low. However if the car had a compression problem, then wouldn't it not start up at all with those numbers?

One thing you can do to get by is put a switch on the fuel pump circuit. Keep the switch off until you start cranking it then flip it on. Hot engines don't like as much fuel. I've never used this method before but heard it works. But its just a bandaid until you get it rebuilt.
