<div>Hmm.... good point about the 10% ethanol potentially being a source of the problem. Back before I sold my turbo SE-R in 2005, the last few months it developed a random hot-start issue whereas it had run perfectly for years earlier. Cold start was no problem at all, but every once in a while trying to start it hot required a lot of cranking. It would catch eventually after 10 seconds or so of cranking. Was that around the time ethanol was starting to be introduced heavily into gasoline? Maybe the 1990s fuel systems don't like ethanol quite as much.<br>

<td valign="top">Excellent thought although mine is a nearly daily driver and I replaced the injectors (stock OEM) three years ago thinking the same thing. Still, it is possible. I wonder, shouldn't 10% ethanol fuel keep some of this to a minimum? Or could it conversely be part of the problem?<br>
