Subject: [V8] Hot Start problems - but starts when floored


Been having the classic hot start/no start problem that seems to be getting
worse. When the car is cool or cools off it starts up w/o issue.

I was totally frustrated and tried flooring it while cranking and the V8
started! I used to have to do this to my Dad's 77(?) Pontiac LeMans (what a
POS).

Anyway, what does the fact that it starts when floored suggest is the
problem? Still the reference sensor or something else?

Unfortunately, my tach dies long ago so I couldn't tell you if if moves when
the engine is cranking. -Dave
