Re: hot Start Problem
Quite often a hot start problem like this is either the starter solenoid getting too hot from not being shielded from the exhaust or the timing being too far advanced. Eight degrees shouldn't be too much. I run 10 degrees BTC on a '78 350 with no issues (automatic, most manuals should be 0.) I have run into the hot start problem on a '64 impala and shielding the starter from the the header did wonders for the problem. If Ford got one thing right, it's the remote starter solenoid. I do agree with the previous post, check the battery cables first. My wife's Malibu did this even cold and it was some unnoticeable corrosion between the battery post and cable.
