No Hot Start
Hey Guys !
Lately my LST has been REALLY finicky about starting when it's hot...if it's over 200° it just is NOT interested in starting. If I let it cool to about 115° or so, and prime the hell out of it, it starts and runs fine. Is this normal?

I had the same problem with mine so I removed the primer from the tank and plugged it and the problem has disappeared. I used to have to spin the engine with my finger over the exhaust to get a re-start but works much better now. Good luck

RE: No Hot Start
Every time I take the LST out, I'll run a tank or two, I'll let it cool down when it runs out of fuel, It gives me a chance to have a smoke.
