Trouble re-starting when warm (Any Ideas)

[Lynn Self]

I can start it everytime when cold. After it warms up, it is hit and miss sometime it will start, most of the time it wont. I've been towed in so many times, put the boat on the trailer and it started right up. Any Ideas?

What engine, make, model, year??<br /><br />Does it shut off when it gets warm?--(failing coil when hot)<br /><br />Or do you shut it off, and then it won't start?<br />If you shut it off, will it start if you try to start it right away?<br />Or does it happen only if you let it sit for a while??
