I had a similar problem with my checvy van back in the 70's. The van would start evertime with no problems until after I drove it for awhile. If I shut the van off and waited a half hour or so it would start again. My problem was a bad starter. In those days, probably like today the solenoid and starter motor was one unit. If you hear no click at all it's the solenoid, if you hear a click when you turn the key, the solenoid is making up but the starter motor is bad. In either case if it's all one unit, you have to replace the unit. I hope this may help you John

Ihc engine hard start hot good start cold?

A hard start when the engine is hot but a good start when cold can be attributed to several factors. One common issue is vapor lock, where fuel vaporizes in the fuel lines, making it difficult for the engine to start. Additionally, problems with the ignition system, such as faulty spark plugs or ignition coils, can also cause difficulty when the engine is hot. Checking the fuel system and ignition components can help diagnose and resolve the issue.

Why does 350 4 barrel starts when cold not when warm?

It is bleeding down---- Leaking fuel out of the fuel bowl and flooding the engine. In other words fowling the spark plugs out. When a engine is cold it needs more fuel to start. But when a engine is hot it needs less fuel to start. You need to make sure the choke plate is opening all the way up when engine is hot and it should stay open until engine cools off. If it is closed when engine is hot that will also flood the engine and it will not start. If choke is working then REBUILD carburetor.
