    f22a4 engine not starting when hot

    I just put another head on my car and now once my motor warms up it shuts off on its own, and will just turn over when trying to start it.

    Where should I start looking for what's wrong?

      Maybe the Coil in the Dizzy.

        Its got the a6 head on it now and the 2 weeks before this past Sunday the dizzy was sitting in my car inside a garage while the motor was waiting for a head.

        I pulled the main relay and opened it up and smells a little burnt. Could that be my problem?

        Also I keep going through the 50 amp block like fuses for the ignition in the under hood fuse box.

          I doubt it's the main relay but it's worth looking into.

          Common main relay problems are difficult cold and hot starts ps, and unable to start for a few minutes after stalling the motor

          Did you check your spark plugs? They can tell a lot about what's going on inside your cylinders like tire tread.

            Ok so I changed out the coil and started right up but I turned it off to change out the upper radiator hose clamp and once again not starting. I checked for spark but there is no spark. So what's next?

              the igniter modul in the dizzy, you can also resolder the main relay just in case.

                Check valve clearances and adjust them as needed.

                      Run codes. Can be a bad coolant temp sensor. Our cars depend on that sensor.

                      Main relay, you can figure it out if you see the check engine light turn off followed by a click when you turn to ignition. If you hear a click and crank it and it doesn't start then its NOT the main relay.

                      But if your saying no spark, im leading towards coil/dizzy. OR loose or yucky ecu ground on thermostat housing. Take it off and clean it.
                      What makes me laugh about forums, is that no matter how much you try to help someone, they dont take the advice. Go ahead and do it the hard way.

                      You got to respect what you drive, and appreciate what you have, making the best of what you got. and if that means putting CAI, HID's, a phat stereo system, and a idiot in the drivers seat...then so be it!

                        That ground is clean. This weekend I'm gonna see about getting another dizzy and putting on there to see if that fixes the problem

                          Before you do that, see if the coil is getting power when it dies.

                            Well it turned out that my icm was bad so I changed it. And now I have to change the fuel pressure regulator, cause its just pouring gas in my motor right now bad enough its coming out the exhaust.
