i need to know how to cure this hot starting issue. i though i fixed it when i replaced my injectors. it was fine after i switched them but it came back a few weeks later. i am starting to give up and if i don't fix it soon i am looking into just getting rid of the car. i really like my FC but i dont like waiting for it to cool down when i really need to leave. so if anyone out there had hot starting issues and fixed it please tell me what you did so i can try it on my car.

So new injectors fixed the problem, but only for a little while? Are you running a fuel filter? What does the inside of your fuel tank look like?
A few years ago a friend of mine had an Audi that had tons of rust in the tank. He kept fixing the fuel injection and it kept crapping out. |
have you checked compression ?
have you adjusted the tps when the car is hot? |
the tank and everything is clean, but i haven't tried checking the tps while the car is hot though.
|
i checked how to adjust the tps but it says i need a light, but i remember reading somewhere that i can adjust it using a voltmeter. can you tell me how to adjust the tps, i have the FSM but i just need to know what i can use in place of the light

it can also be vacuum leaks....

see thats what i am starting to think it is actually

FC's are picky about starting hot... and you can have a bunch of marginal stuff (small vacuum leak + tired coolant temp sensor + leaky injectors) make it flood... |
can compression cause hard hot starting too

yes, but if it idles smoothly than compression is usually good. |
