Dear List Members:

Do I have a whammy here!  My 83.5 van will not start when it is warm.  Cold,
no problem.  Warm, nothing.  Cranks but will not fire.  I started to notice
that it has been running rich, almost like the choke is always on.  Now, it
has started this game of not starting.  When it fails to start, I do notice
a strong fuel odor outside the vehicle, but cannot find evidence of leaking.
When it does start, it runs fine but rich for as long as I do not shut off
the ignition.

Any thoughts?  Starter?  Fuel pump relay?

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Jim
