Default Re: Starting issues when warm

Two things: Before you throw money at the car do some analysis. Follow 700RPM's advice and try cranking by hand when hot. Then test the voltage drop at different places like at the starter switch. You don't have to run the ignition on, just push down on the starter switch while you measure the voltage at the starter. Do the same from the ground lug on the battery to a good engine ground location.
