    Trouble starting when it's hot

    I have noticed that in particularly hot days, my car has more trouble starting after sitting in the sun all day - it turns over more times before firing up. Anyone have a thought as to the cause? Battery has tested fine...

    Could be the fuel pumps under the seat as I had a similar situation and pulled the bach seat out and just tapped on the pumps and seemed to work
