Angry not starting

After driving say 7 miles and the engine is not hot or any other unusual thing but once you stop the engine and you want to restart it in a minute or so it won't without waiting say 20 minutes but it does turn over normally.

Carb

Its the carb im 17 and have worked on my volvo for 3 years now and stated to stop and not start again. Take it to your dealer or do it at home(like i did) it getas really dirty after many yeqars and it should start back up as new i know mine does.

Re: not starting

Busman, your injection system, not carb, is the problem. Possible trouble spots: (1)main fuel pump bad and/or overheating (2) in-tank pump (if you have a Bosch sys.) bad and or blocked screen (3) main fuel filter plugged up. START POINT-replace main filter, and see whyat gives. Good luck
