Problem restarting hot motor..
I'm running a carb with no choke. When the engine is dead cold, I turn the key and it starts right up no problems. After hotrodding around for a while or highway cruising, when I try to start the car, it feels like the starter is fighting something, turns over once, stops, fights, turns over a few more times then slowly starts to spin up the motor. I can get it started this way with a lot of extra gas pedal stoping.
What am I doing wrong here? Could it be the PS pump? It seems like it is straight dead when I first start the car and gives no power to my steering (despite my adding fluid to it all the time to keep the level up) and whines all the way until 2-3 mins later when it quiets down and starts working. Just my guess
Thanks
Crazy Pete
