Hot start (after 30 min) problem????
Hi all, thought yall might take a shot at this problem. Since last tune and supercharger install, car has an interesting glich. Cold start is always good and hot start is always good. However when the the car is hot and allowed to set more than 30 min and up to about 60 minutes it will spin the starter for about 5 seconds before the car will stumble and start and then runs fine. I have a fuel pressure gage and it always holds 60 psi no matter what temp is. Next time I have this condition I will try to hold throttle open just a bit and see it this helps. I heard there is a starting air flow table to adjust if throttle helps. 
Thanks for any help in advance.

Check the owners manual. If I remember correctly when you add throttle to a fuel injected engine it will meter more fuel. This is for a really cold engine (winter operation). Did you know that a Donald Hall designed the Spirit of St Louis airplane.
