This is a Temp II problem I would almost guarantee it. I have these senders for $30 in stock if you friend needs one. A customer of mine was having this exact problem. He rigged up a switch to shut off the fuel pump manually when he was trying to hot restart. He would crank it over without the fuel pump being on and the van would start right up. After it was running he would turn the pump on and it would run fine. The Temp II tested wierd and when I put a new one in, it fixed the problem immediately. I drove the van for months afterward and never experienced the hard starting when hot again. Thanks, Ken Wilford John 3:16 www.vanagain.com Phone: (856)-765-1583 Fax: (856)-327-2242
