My hot-start problems were soley related to a bad fuel accumulator. Plus, after fixing it, the AFR was off, a lot!

Air/Fuel ratio. Adjustable, using the little 3mm hex screw on CIS distributor. Will screw and hex with your life!

The hot start problem is the ages old vapor lock issue where the fuel boils in the fuel lines after the motor is shutdown.

To avoid this, Porsche runs the radiator fan after shutdown and the fuel injection system when working properly maintains pressure after shutdown. This pressure raises the boiling point of the fuel so it does not vaporize.

Please leave it alone until you have tested the system and control pressures.

Oh, don't chase after that! Do what Paul says first, I wasted more time than I care to admit playing that card!
