I was told to post this in the corolla forum so dont get upset with me please. I just picked up a 88 nova with 200000 on her. I changed the fuel filter, plugs, wires, cap and rotor. The problem is after it is warm and I shut it off and then go to start it up again it turns over about 10-15 times before it starts. When its cold it starts right up. I am not sure what else to do or if I have to just deal with it. Any help would be greatly appreciated..

No worries, they're mechanically the same. Do you know if you have a carbureted or fuel injected engine? The carbureted version has a big black metal snorkel going over the top of the engine. Answer that then we'll be able to help more.
