I've been chasing a hot start problem that I just can't find.
The engine starts fine cold. Runs fine.
In trying to restart it warmed up, it's being difficult.
I've isolated this down to the coil firing at something like 25% of what it should or what it fires at cold.
Also the tach won't rev over 1,200 rpm.
What's been done so far, cleaned all grounds and checked for resistence. New ignition switch. New ignition coil (the third one). Switched to yellow top with new resistance wire to ignition. Took out Petronix and went back to ignition points.
Coil phenolicly isolated from engine heat.
Again, this is the ignition not firing hot. Carbs are not involved in this. This won't even fire hot with starting fluid.
...and yes Coralsnake, pump gas with ethanol (corn juice) in it.
In 50 years of running these cars, I can't say as I've ever encountered anything exactly like this and stated plainly, I'm stumped.
I'm open to CONSTRUCTIVE ideas. Nothing like, well push it off a cliff or gt a Corvette please?
