Re: Hot Start 1950 Merc
The most common causes of not starting when hot are (1) vapor lock and (2) coil. With an electric fuel pump, it is pretty safe to say that #1 is not your problem. So, check the coil. Disconnect any spark plug wire and hold the tip of the wire close to any ground. When cranking you should see a white to blue spark that will jump half an inch. If no spark or yellow and weak, try a new or rebuilt coil.
