My 73 914 1.7 With factory FI just doesn’t want to restart after a warm shut down. The motor turns but it just wont start without a lot of coaxing. Any thoughts or suggestions ?

+ Do you think warppinng the fuel lines would help ?
+ Is it vapor lock ?
+ almost seems like the car is Flooded ?

Thanks in advance for your replies.

I agree, good chance it's vapor lock related. I had the same warm start issue with my 73 2.0.
Problem was solved completely by relocating the fuel pump as the prior post notes.
Good luck
