[urq] Re: CIS

Yup, my turbo converted 80q used to have horrible hot starting problems, now that I'm running EFI no such issues, the car starts on like the first crank, almost instantly.  I think the problem with the CIS is that you have 5 relatively small fuel lines that heat soak very quickly.  My EFI setup uses -6 lines, about 3/8ID, and I have insulation over the fuel rail in and out lines, seems to take the hot engine compartment heat very well.
