Leaking injectors can also cause hard start problems as the engine can be
flooded after a short shut down. Testing fuel pressure during strt up and
after shut down can help reveal this problem along with testing-inspecting
the injectors.

Subject: Need help with hard start after stop

Hi All,
I have been away from the group for a while.  Now I'm working on the van
again.

My problem is that my 84 Vanagon runs great, but when I stop it just doesn't
want to start again.  It will eventually start if I wait long enough.  I
recently replaced the temp sensor and the wire going to the sensor.  I think
it's getting spark.  The problem seems to be in the fuel side.

I would appreciate any help anyone can offer.  Also, I have forgotten how to
access the archives so I would appreciate that information also.

George
