Is this vapour lock?
My truck (283 with Q-jet carb) starts like a dream every time when cool. If I drive for about 30 minutes or so, stop at a store for 5 minutes then get back in, it takes quite a few trys to get it to start. If I hold the pedal to the floor it will start so I guess somehow it's flooded.
Any suggestions for warm-starts? Thanks
