im having a starting issue with my car. it starts fine when its cold but when its hot it turns over really hard. after its sits awhile it starts up fine again. any idea what could be causing this?

Turn the headlight on when is acting up, if they dim a lot then the starter might drawing a lot of amps. D you have headers? High heat can cause problems like that. Check your cables or corrosion & tight connections.

I agree with ex also does the batt hold a charge ok

did you check fuel pressure?

I will try this.

battery is really good.

yes it never changes.

does it crank slow or normal when its hot? if its slow, i would assume something is drawing alot of juice. if it normal might be a problem in the fuel system. could try testing injectors, when was fuel filter changed?

its a carbed car. could it be out of time?

timing could be part of it. test it see for sure my 87 350 TPI is 6* BTDC according to underhood sticker not sure what the 305 is but you can find it underhood

I have the same problem with my 350 tpi , did any body ever resolve this problem .

changed the starter and that solved my problem.
