Hmmm... I, too, have a 2.0 L AFC FI motor with warm start wierdness. It
will start just fine, but I have to give it gas to do so (this is on a FI
motor, remember?), and continue to give it extra gas for 5 - 10 seconds
or it will die. After that, it feels bright and happy again. Been like
that since I bought it, lived with it, probably will continue to live
with it. Weird, though. Go figure.
