Re[2]: 865KTQ HOT START PROBLEM SOLVED!!!!

     This is true.. shooting from the hip is no good... no one can just 
     GIVE answers.... they can only provide clues. Moral of the story: Use 
     the information provided to you with  caution, No one knows anybody's 
     cars as well as its owner/driver/...Use the information supplied to 
     you as a tool.... and most of all THINK... for yourself....I 
     Definitely could of bought allot more parts.... Injectors to me are 
     basically a starting point, to which I have a baseline... But then 
     Again I can justify buying a $325 Snap-On timing light......

Another hot start villain is the fuel pressure accumulator. It works in 
concert with the check valve, tightly sealing injectors and the after-run 
injector cooling fan to maintain high fuel pressure and, conversely, low 
fuel vaporization while the engine hot soaks following shutdown.
     
Your single-answer mechanic could have been right. But the odds 
were against him. Don't get me started on troubleshooting vs. 
shooting from the hip.
