Hot starting issues
Hello I have a 87 tpi 350. I have a problem starting the car when it is hot. I starts fine when it is cold. I recently changed the fuel pump , fuel filter, and fuel regulator. the static fuel pressure test is 46 psi when cold. When hot the pressure doesn't built that fast and it doesn't get to 46psi when the static test is on hot. Can someone please help? Thanks.

Re: Hot starting issues
OK, so what pressure DOES it make when hot?

What tests have you performed on your cranking system?

Re: Hot starting issues
Sorry for the late response, when it hot starts it goes to 46 psi. The starter was recently replaced too
