hot starting problems
Usually after shutting off the engine, and only waiting about 10-15 minutes before starting it again... I've had a lot of difficulty starting again; the battery seems to be really pulled down. If I get a push start or jump, the ammeter shows about 30 amps for the first 10 minutes or so and then goes down to about 5-10amps. If I wait about an hour... everything usually is OK.
The battery is located in the trunk, with about a 3 ft connection to the frame; engine is well grounded... both +/- cables are heavy duty.
Is this a electrical problem, or is the starter overheating from the headers? Help!!!!
