Ok, when my car is cold it starts perfectly. When its hot outside it starts perfectly. BUT, when i drive the car around for a bit, shut it down and start ot again while its still warm(within 2 hours), the starter seems to hang up a bit, making a annoying little crunch noise......Also when its real bad at almost stalls the engine. This ONLY happens during start-up and its right after the engine fires up. What could be the problem? im thinking its heat soak? i have no idea help! [Mad]

did you try changing out the starter selinoid on the inside of driver side fender

I can try that...but how could it be that? I mean its happening directly with a warm engine, dunno, just trying to pinpoint it before i start shelling out dough is all.
