I am still having a problem with it not starting when the engine is hot. When it is cool - no problem whatsoever. Starts great.
When I had it tuned up, they changed the plugs, plug wires, and also had to put on a new idle contol motor. What could be causing it to not start when hot? If I let it sit 10-15 minutes, then it starts. Thanks for any suggestions.

Where can I get one, and what does it look like/
I looked at AdvanceAuto, Napa, and Autozone websites and it is not listed. Could it be called something else ?
Thanks,
Dave
