Hard to start when warm

[Todd Humphreys]

Can yall give me some suggestions why my 3.0 Chevy is hard to start after warmed up. Cold starts are normal, warm start require throttle fully open. After starting no problems during any rpm range. <br /><br />17' Glastron Ski and Fish 3.0 Mercrusier

Sounds like a vapor lock problem in the carb to me Donkdaddy.

Did you check your choke? It could be stuck partially closed.

i had the same problem and it was the electric choke. started fine when cold but when warmed up, it was like trying to get a chain saw started after sitting for six months.<br />goodluck<br />john

Hi<br />The choke is possible to adjust, what year is your engine and which carb do you have?<br />Regards<br />Affa
