Re: Car stalls or doesn't start when hot! HELP! 700 1985

There may be other reasons why the car wont start when its warm. But having

had the experience, I know that a bad temp sensor is one of the possible culprits.

When I first turned it over it would sputter once, like it wanted to start. Then it would turn and turn without starting. But when the engine

cooled down it would start as if nothing was wrong at all. After the temp

sensor replacement, there was no more problem. In fact, at 130,000 mi

Ive had no more problems with the car.
