What could be causes for long crank while hot but instant start when cold?
Seems like when car is cold it starts instantly, no problem. When its hot, sometimes it starts fast but sometimes takes 3 to 4 seconds of cranking before starting. This a symptom of something?
In for suggestions. Mine has done it since being tuned with a certain version of software. Curious to see if it's something mechanical and was just a coincidence.
Same here. Always get a quick light off but with a heat cycle still present it takes a few cranks & kinda stumbles alive
Sometimes ,I have to give it some pedal to start. Only when warm.

Im seeing reports of Cam position sensor being the culprit. Anyone try replacing theirs? Im thinking about giving it a shot.
