When my engine gets to normal temp. it will not start back up when car is shut off. If someone jumps car it will start back up or I have to let it sit to cool off for a couple of hours. Starter is new.

Re: Engine wont start up again once warm

when you say it won't start , what do you mean ? Starter won't turn over, or it just keeps turning over and over .

Re: Engine wont start up again once warm

It doesn't turn over at all. No clicking either. When I have someone jump me off it turns over immediately. The car is not overheated at all, this occurs if I drive a couple of miles down the road. Because this is a new starter I know its not heat soaked. When car is completely cooled off (in the mornings) it starts right up.

I forgot to mention that it cannot be the alternator or the battery. Had them tested and they are new. Battery is an Optima battery.
