Trouble starting my 84 T/A when engine is hot
I have an 84 Trans Am with the stock 305/4bbl engine and carb. The car starts perfectly fine when the engine is cold. It's when it gets warm to full temperature that there is a problem. The motor cranks fine, but the engine takes a long time to catch - it's usually several attempts before the car finally turns over. Has this happened to anyone else, or does anyone know what I could check? Thanks. Joe

The starter IMO. If it is that, sooner or later you'll get no crank at all.
