I have a 1976 914 2L that is stock. The engine runs great and starts right up when cold. After driving the car and the engine warms up, I shut it off and have a very difficult time restarting it. After it sits for a while and cools down, it starts up fine. Any ideas? Thanks, John VS

I've got a '75 2.0L. If I've been driving and go into a store for like 30 minutes, come out and try to start the car...I'll sometimes get that "flooded" like start. I just put the accelerator to the floor and crank it until it starts. It runs a little rough at first but it settles out.
