trouble starting in '86 5kcstq (Additional info)

[Nate Stuart]

Try pulling the fault codes from the ECU first.
See www.sjmautotechnik.com for details on howto do this. There are many
things that can cause a weird hot start issue. Might as well see if the car
can tell you about any first before you start guessing.

HTH!

are dry, and i am getting spark.  Then if I wait 20 minutes or so it starts
fine.  Normally I can start with just 2-3 cranks.  This ones a real
puzzeler.  TIA Luke '865kcstq

and tried cranking, and it squirted out pretty good.  So I am thinking it
has something to do w/ the injector distribution on the left side of the
engine.  Any thoughts?
