well i got all good connections and new wires. however i do only got 2 smallish wires for grounds for chassis to block.

the starter really isn't relaly that close to exhaust. i cna change the starter out real easay. and yes when i try starting it when its hot, all it does is just turn once then die. doesn't do anything else.

i just got feeling if its vapor lock then the motor will still crank. not the case here.

so i'm dead on the starter soak problem. is there something at a hardware place like home depot or something to get a shield? i know you can get metal straps at home depot.
