83 ferrari 308gti

When you say that "it will not re-start", do you mean:

1. the engine is cranked over by the starter motor, but it doesn't fire,

or

2. the starter motor does not engage at all?

 

Fuel accumulator or fuel pump check valve. In rare occasions the WUR can cause a hot start issue.

 

or both. I had to replace both. If the check valve in the fuel pump is bad then just buy an external check valve and replace the fuel line between the pump and accumulator as the new valve is a differant size and uses a "banjo" fitting. Gt Car Parts in Phx has them. If you change the fuel pump the same applies as the old pump whith the check valve internal is no longer available. The acumulator is an easy swap out.

It certainly wouldn't be a bad idea to verify what the fuel supply pressure is doing during the hot restart (as 308GTS's post implied) , but what do you mean by "give it gas"? Intentionally put some raw fuel into the intake tract, or just press the gas pedal down?

 

This post looks very suspicious, looks like a 10 yr old is posting, and replies thanks with the Very Limited response/information.
If you are legit, fill out your profile more..

 

Ferrari didn't make a 2V in 1983

 

Very true Dr Tom, but doesn't mean some owner didn't perform an engine swap...stuff happens.

 

my '83 is a QV.

But my hotstart issue was an intermittent fuel pump problem.
Pump replaced, problem gone.

 

We are legit get to the point can you help or not.


Thanks

 

If you haven't, you might post in the "308/328/Mondial" forum.

 

I was thinking the same thing...and, if he filled out his profile, he would get more help.
