How do I wire a switch up to the hot start relay plug so I can start the car inside.

I'm having trouble stating the car when it's warm.
How do I wire a switch up to the hot start relay plug so I can start the car from inside the car.

Thanks

I have a solid state hot start relay. It turns the CSV on after your engine has cranked for 1 second. If you keep cranking with no start it will turn off the CSV after 4 seconds. Just plug it into hot start relay socket. PM me if you want to buy one.

Dave could you put a list of the electrical improvements that you have come up with descriptions and prices?
It's probably in the archives somewhere........thanx

My web site shows most everything except the price. PM me for a price list.

On the white empty socket in the relay compartment there are 3 wires. If you connect the white/red to the Blue/black the cold start injector will fire whenever the starter is cranking. Don't just put in a jumper or most of the time you'll flood the engine. But a pushbutton switch will come in handy.

The factory intended a relay that would pulse the cold-start only when very hot, but I don't believe that they ever came up with the actual part. Dave Bitsyncmaster has apparently invented one.

Wiring a pushbutton or sticking in a relay is only going to get you past the symptom. While it can get you going the best repair is to find and fix the cause of the hard, hot restart problem. 90% of the time it is going to be a bad accumulator or a bad fuel pump check valve.

At one point in time the previous owner of my car had hooked up a switch as Dave was describing due to a hot start issue. Eventually the PO got tired of having to hit the switch everytime he started the car and replaced the accumulator to solve the root problem.

The switch was kind of a cool workaround, but I agree that it's better to solve the real issue than band-aid the situation.

The switch will get you buy in a pinch though so you're not stuck sitting there waiting for the engine to cool down before you can restart it. I still keep the switch box with me in case of a future issue but it's no longer plugged in.

I can agree putting in a switch is convenient but doing the plug swap is not all that difficult and it will get you going so you are not stuck or have to wait till the motor cools down.

If you don't mind the embarrassment.

And wearing out the connectors.
