Wierd starting problem
Hey guys, I really need help on this one. I've owned my FD for Ten years now, so there's not much it can throw at me that I can't catch but this one has me in a tizzy. It all started suddenly when I took it out to get some gas. On the way back home I noticed it started to misfire until all cylinders (so to speak) appeared to just shut down, and it refused to restart. Got a tow home, changed the fuel filter checked everything else I could think of & it fired right up. Problem solved, Right? Wrong! It now starts easily, idles smooth as can be, but if it runs for 2-3 mins., it doesn't even have to properly warm up, it refuses to start after shutting down & trying an immediate restart. It cranks over but doesn't catch & It then starts right up after it completely cools off.
I'm using a PowerFC base tuned by the RX7 Store, XS TO4E single turbo, no cats, stock engine, etc.
All suggestions welcome.
Chris.

Just got back in from a long couple days at work, so I haven't tried the lights thing yet, but I thought about the coolant sensor too, & from all indications on the PFC Commander it's working normally, ie Temp indicates air temp when car is cold, & it goes up as the engine warms up.
And no fuel smell in the bayAny other ideas?
Thx,
Chris.
