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

Does it crank? If not, Ryan is on the right track. But I assume it must be turning over since you are on the FI track. Just to rule it out, I would verify you have spark since that only takes a minute. Then you'll have narrowed things down solidly. Somebody is probably going to suggest vapor lock, but I would be skeptical of that.
