Appolgies if i seem to be carpet bombing the forum with posts - I'm (I hope) at the steepest part of the learning curve with my 'Mog at the moment, 3 weeks into ownership. Rapidly knocking things down as sorted, but still some niggles to get to grips with.
The car starts on the nail from cold and runs perfectly .... However. If its left to stand for 20 mins once warmed up it takes a very long crank to get it to fire up.
It always goes, but it can be 10 seconds or more cranking before it fires.
I'm pretty sure this is down to vapour lock - is it a known "thing" ?. Does anyone have a fix ?.
The definition of being old is when aspirations turn into regrets.

I've got a 2015 Aero Coupe, which I guess is going to be the same engine and fueling set up and it always starts immediately hot or cold.
I just googled it which made the following suggestions...
Crankshaft or Camshaft Position Sensors: As these sensors age, internal thermal expansion breaks down their circuitry when hot. They fail to send precise rotational signals to the ECU until cooled or subjected to extended cranking.
Fuel Pressure Leakdown / Leaking Injectors: If an injector drips or the fuel pressure regulator bleeds off pressure into a hot intake tract, a temporary rich or vapor-locked condition occurs, delaying immediate ignition firing.
