Hi guys, this one is really for the early car owners! I've got a 69T (webber carbs)which I've owned since Christmas and which has always had a hot start problem. I've serviced it with recommended plugs, oil, new filters, set the carbs, and adjusted timing. However when ever I try to start my car once it is hot, I have lots of trouble getting it to fire up. The best method I've found is to gently depress the accelerator pedal to the floor and hold it there whilst cranking it up to 20 times before it fires. It's annoying and it ****s me when people look at the "porsche wanker" trying to start his car! I'm hoping that one of you early car gurus might be able to help me out, thanks guys!

PS. The car is running quite well, with a small flat spot between 3 and 4 thousand. The plugs have a nice colour, and the pipe colour looks good too (I can still get real leaded fuel in Australia).
