I know that this has been asked many many times and I also know that I have commented before on things that seem to have "cured" mine in the past...

I have a chipped tractor, I replace the battery 2 years ago and the starter motor last year (under 12 months ago) and I am finding that in this hot weather the car is an absolute bugger to start.

It did seem worse when the fuel was below 20 litres, but even on a full tank is difficult.

I have read on a previous post that pouring cold water over the Fuel Pump helps, however, I found yesterday when trying this, that it didn't seem to help any (the car had been standing for 2 hours after being run and felt as though it had just been turned off).

I have looked at TIS 2000 workshop disk and found no real explanation except possible the fuel pump (on the tank).  which look a bit of a pain to replace/clean...

I would appreciate any help.  Thanks.

I have done paperclip test on the car now and the results are:-

1-9, 4-4, 4-9, 9-2 and 9-6
