Why won't my firebird start?
I have an 89 formula firebird 5.7 tpi. Why won't the engine start after it gets hot? I have to let it sit there for a while to start it again. My dad said its after it gets hot. And it has fuel pressure.

Re: Why want my firebird start?
Im not sure the Psi is the problem because we have already hooked a guage up to once and it was fine. But it normally on does it when I go pump gas. The gas station is like one of two blocks away so i didnt it would get that hot.

I don't know what you are trying to say 
. If you " hooked up a gauge once", then hook it back up and get the PSI rating at idle and WOT.
