ok, well when i drive the car for like 20 minutes or more and then turn it off... it has a really hard time starting back up. but if i wait until the car cools down (a half hour or an hour) then it starts right up again... i have no idea what the problem could be. anybody have any ideas?

oh and its a redtop in a 1996 240sx...

thanks

possibly the coolant temp sensor, the one that sends signal to the ECU
