Hot engine starts were a bitch. I found a simple cure. When I shut the engine down I did it with the mag switch, not the mixture. Never touched the mixture. When I got back in my plane after eating my $40 hamburger, I turned on the mag, hit the starter switch and it started on the first blade. . .every time. I passed this on to others and they had the same success. Warning!! Don't screw around with the prop during your walk-around.
