Re: [L98] hard to start (slapvettehead)
If it satarts right up when cold but hard after a few hours I would suspect leaking injectors.
To check this out, hold the accelerator to the floor for a few seconds before cranking a warm motor. If it starts right up then it was flooded by leaking injectors.
You can send a set of injectors to Rich at Cruzin Performance (link on my site, see sig. below) and he will recondition and flow test them for around $10/injector with 48hr shop time.
