Re: [DML] hot start no start

Hey VIN 5734

Which fuel pump do you have? If you have the older style I'd recommend to
change it. I had hot start problems when I first bought my car. I replaced
the fuel accumulator and the fuel pump. I had the old style "long neck" pump
with the built-in check valve. I was told that the newer style pump with the
external check valve was much better and more reliable, so I replaced it. No
more hot start problems.
