Having a problem starting my 1970 1.7 when it is hot, the car starts right up when cold but once it's been shut down it won't re start.

My previous 914 was carbed so i have very little exp with FI.

Does anyone have a checklist or a starting point to diagnose the problem

Thanks all in advance

It is possible it is a bad Starter/Solenoid. Heat causes resistance.

I replaced my starter when I first got my car as the old one was shot.

Went to local auto parts store and they sold me a Bosch starter rebuilt by Autolite. I would need to turn the key like 10 times to get it to start after hot.

Not sure if this is your problem but sounds likely.

If you buy a starter ONLY buy a BOSCH rebuilt by BOSCH VEEERRRRY Important.
