Why does my starter get hot?
If your battery terminals are clean and still get hot, along with the battery cable then it is a good indication that the problem is with your starter. Typically this means that it will need a complete rebuild or replacement due to worn out bushings, brushes, or shorted commutator or windings.
Why is a hot engine hard to start?
Most of the reasons by which a hot engine would be hard to start are based on problems related to the fuel. When the engine is too hot, fuel can’t circulate properly due to the way in which vapor obstructs it and therefore the engine wouldn’t start as easily as it should or it wouldn’t start at all.

Why does the Cold motor start longer than the warm motor?
Reason being, with bleeding injectors, the longer they sit, the more fuel gets dumped into the cylinder (until all the pressure is bled off).

Why does my car starter not crank when it’s Hot?
