With the temperature hovering around the 30 degree C mark I'm getting problems restarting when the engine is hot. It's fine starting from cold. Is this fuel vapourisation? If so, how do you solve it?

Hi Pete Thanks for the suggestions, but I don't think that's the problem.

 Hi John How heavy is the electrical consumption on your car?

Yes, of course! Same symptoms but totally opposite cause. I'll check it out. Regards JP On 2 Jul 2009, at 18:51, John Hudson wrote:

It might be flooding, ie needle valve and seat are worn.

A logical thought, but it's not that. The lever is locked in the summer position. I don't know how good the diverter box is inside though.

 Hello John We had a problem like this the other week when it was very hot.
