No hot start (1986 5kcstq)

[AllradAudi at aol.com]

Trust me on this one,  Its your "Check Valve" inside your fuel tank which can 
be reached through an access panel in the trunk of the car....  I assume when 
your car is hot, it will start right away (Less than 5 seconds after turning 
it off).  You are loosing fuel pressure and there is air behind the 
injectors.    While I was troubleshooting my car I carried a can of either 
with me and a screwdriver... when it wouldn't start I would take the hose off 
the intake, give it a shot and vrooooom!  ALSO, parking on a hill worked too, 
bump starting seemed to work also.   Anyway, the part is about $15  and it 
takes about 20 min to do.  I used a ground strap when I did it and took the 
WHOLE carpet out of the trunk... You DONT want any sparks from static while 
your arm is in the gas tank. !!!
