starting problem


Has anybody had any issues with their car not wanting to restart after it has been driven a while or after it has been running and reached a normal operating tempature? I know this is not a timing issue the car turns over fine. It may have something to do with to much fuel but I have installed brand new 30lb injectors. And before I ever rebuilt my motor it had the same problem with 19lb injectors. Pretty much everything under the hood is brand new.
Darrell has been trying to help me with this and I really appreciate it, but I thaught I would ask everyone who surfs this forum just in case they have ever experienced the same problem.

Motor: 347, gt40 upper and lower, Msd probillet distributor, msd 6a, msd tfi coil, 70mm eldebrock bbk throttle body, 76mm C & L maf calibrated for 30lb injectors and all the other quick mods such as under drive pulleys, gears, cold air and headers.

Yes. Even before I rebuilt the motor I had changed that and know I have a MSD distributor and it came with one so it is new.

I've seen alot of MSD ignition modules go bad. If you have a stock module it wouldn't hurt to try it.
