Ur-Q Hot Start Problem

[pacdev@csn.net]

Folks,

I've been watching the thread on other hot start problems since my rebuilt Ur-Q 
has been giving me a consistent problem. 

When cold (i.e. overnight) it starts great. As soon as engine temp gets above 
100 C it will not restart. Cranks and threatens to catch but doesn't. A push 
start for about 300 yards will finally get it going and then it runs great. But 
not if I stop it. Then back to square one. I've plumbed the Bentley and the Ur-Q 
manual and have yet to find a reasonable explanation of a) Hot start relay 
system  b)Thermo time switch, c) temp sender.

What I really want is an explanation of how each system works and some trouble 
shooting guide to check out what is causing the problem. Much obliged to you 
all.
