I have two issues, and I don't want to start replacing parts without checking with the experts on this site.
1) starts up fantastic when cold, but after driving around for a bit and stopping, has difficult hot start. I have to press accelerator to the floor to get it to start, but to it's credit, it always starts then.
2) for season change I have to reset the idle - this is easily done, but wanted to get this out there as a symptom in case it was relevant. idle isn't particularly consistent, but as long as I've opened the reset bypass screw a bit in the summer and close it a bit in the winter (which make sense, as the winter will have denser air and the idle should run higher) it runs fine.
Idle set screw gasket already replaced (that helped). Injectors cleaned, no apparent vacuum leaks as I've been through it already and replaced everything.
I'm suspicious of the fuel pressure regulator but haven't checked it as in Bentley (sorry - I have lots of old cars and an old house, so it's a matter of prioritizing what to fix when...scraping house windows and repainting at the moment.)
Thanks for any advice...
