Default Hot Start Problem
This is probbaly old hat to some of you but my engine just won't crank over when it's hot. I have a 351W rebuilt to 427, roller cam, 11:1 compression, etc. MSD ignition & Pro Billet distributor. It starts just fine when cold. But when it's hot, it only gives me an "r" then nothing. I push started it last night and it ran fine. And after sitting in my garage for about an hour it started without a problem.

I have a brand new starter from Sumitt and I wired it like the instructions said. That is, bypass the Ford solenoid that I put on the firewall.

Any ideas?

Dave
