You must remember that once you turn off the engine will continue to heatup for a while as there is no coolant flowing around. So if you start after 2/3 mins , no worries after 10 -15 mins it's hotter and that's when the hot start problem occurs, then as it cools you will be able to start again.

The fuel accumulator is not that hard to get to as long as you can get under the car to work, If all goes well it should take no more than an hour to swap 
Cheers

Not really sure myself Stuart, I will have to do a little more research, sounds
like yours could be just the relay, mine just refuses to start full stop (when hot)
I have to wait till she cools down, I think i will be going for the Accumulator!!

Thanks for that Paul. Looks like the accumulator is pretty hard to 
get to. Could it be a problem with the hot start relay - is it worth 
trying a new relay (without the momentary switch) first as its 
cheaper? My car iis fine if I switch it off then start it again in a 
few minutes but if I leave it for 20 mins or so then it's nearly 
impossible to start. I was parked on a street in Cambridge on 
Saturday with everyone looking at the car and it refused to start - 
very embarresing!

which is about £12 GBP + post, you can leave it plugged in and push 
the switch when it needs to be used. Internally fuse protected for 
safety. This little device will force the cold start valve to inject 
some gas every time you start the car, hot or cold. If you have a 
chronic problem, then try replacing the fuel accumulator to solve 
the problem!!
