After 4 fixes, this 4 cyl. stick still won't start after it's been driven +/- one mile (until it's cooled down, and even then it's hard to start). Suggestions? Also hard to start when it's cold. It's got a rebuilt engine.

if it cranks over slowly it sounds as if the engine was set up "too tight" when it was rebuilt so that when it heats up tthe friction is just too great to allow it to turn over. I had that problem on a Pontiac engine. If that isn't what you meant then I assume we're looking at an ignition or fuel problem so give us a bit more detail. Keith Bauer White Tiger Racing
