Seller just accepted my offer...

1975 Malaga Red 2.0...

Only has one problem...

The owner says that when he takes the car on long trips, or does any real hard driving to get the engine good and hot, that if he shuts it off, when he goes to restart it, the starter won't turn -- for about an hour until it cools down.

He says that there is no voltage loss at the solenoid and he does not believe the problem is caused by a relay.

Has anyone ever experienced this type of problem?

What was the remedy? Any advice will help.

I will take delivery of the car sometime next week. I plan on making this one of the first things I tackle.
