problems starting when hot

Post by bray »

im having problems starting my 2 when its hot if i take it for about a thirty mile drive the car does not over heat runs ok but if i turn it off for a few mins then go to restart it nothing.

The car still turns over but will not fire and stinks of fuel i have stripped the car down this morning cleaned the plugs cap and roto arm all seem ok

I ran it up to temprature then shut it down and again wouldn't start however i had previously read about fuel vapourisation so undid the fuel cap and had a big rush of air and after this the car started again has anyone came across this with there 2.

Mines a 1990 g limited auto if that helps!
