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 it does, but does not start, its probably your cht sensor. go to your local vw store and get one for your year, engine size etc. I just went through this same situation just last week.

Ie: car ran strong for 20, mins, slowly die and shut down, hard to restart etc, if I could get it to start, had to feather the throttle, and hope for the best. Talked to george at AA, and he recommend the cht sensor as the culprit.
