[DML] Re: Early symptoms of a hot start problem?

["Harold McElraft" <hmcelraft@xxxxxxx>]

I wouldn't start jumping to conclusions yet - it could be as simple 
as the last tank of gas you got.

Run a little Marvel Mystery Oil in the gas - it cleans up the fuel 
system. Then go around and disconnect/reconnect the electrical 
connections in the engine compartment to clean them and assure good 
connections, especially on the ignition resistor mounted on the 
firewall.
