   RN> EH> Roger, I am not sure if this is your problem, but I had a truck   
   RN> EH> that would have to sit for 30 minutes after driving before it would   
   RN> EH> restart.   
      
   RN> EH> It had to do with the spring in the starter getting too hot. It   
   RN> EH> needed to cool down before it would engage the starter again.   
      
   RN>I'm just now remembering that my ex had that same problem with her Impala an   
   RN>because it was out of warranty, would cost her $500 to put a shield between   
   RN>starter and the engine.  One shade-tree wanted to wrap the starter in some k   
   RN>of heat reflecting material, but she never had it done.   
      
   RN> EH> Just a thought...   
      
   RN>But a good thought.  Thanks.   
      
   My post was assumng the starter did function but the engine woudl not   
   start until it cooled down.
