Starting Problem
After a long run at high speeds, my car would not start. I had this problem previously but it seemed to have cured itself....well, apparently not. This only happens when the engine is hot after a long run. Once the engine cools down, it starts again with no problem. I suspect the solenoids need replacing. Any comments ?

What year is your car?
It does sounds like a solenoid prob with the starter.

Possible different answer for CIS cars vs DME cars...
For CIS..maybe need a better/replacement check valve at fuel pump discharge..... Need to know car model.... Wil

When it does not start: is it cranking/turning the engine? or is it no crank response to turning the key?
If it's nothing, I would lean towards the solenoid on the starter. Regards
