[DML] Engine starting/running a second time for the day.

["sweetp01569" <paul.sweet@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Sorry for the barrage of questions (this is my third posting in about 
10  minutes). I have a question about starting my car after I have 
successfuly and smoothly run it the first time during the day.  After 
about 20 minutes to an hour after parking my car from a smooth initial 
run, it has trouble firing up again (it will start right up if it has 
been only a few minutes, but becomes an issue after a longer period). 
It will crank several times with no success.  I will push the gas 
pedal down, and try cranking again,  still not firing.  I will wait a 
few more minutes, and after some more cranking it will eventually 
start.  At this time, the engine will either run smoothly, or 
sometimes a little rough.  I am not sure what causes this.  Could it 
be the infamous "hot start" problem (can someone describe this to 
me?).  Does it have something to do with a fuel accumulator and fuel 
pressure?  Is this hard to change?  Any advice would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Paul
