RE: 96 Range Rover DSE
How is it when you try to start when hot?
Does it make any noises, clicking etc,? Does it turn the engine over but just doesn't start?
Does it start but die again striaght away?
A bit more discription of noises and sounds when you try would help to give a better idea of things to look for..

Have you noticed any drop in performance of your engine at all.. just thinking of a fuel problem, i.e. a pump issue or injectors blocked or not spraying as they should due to wear.

It could be "leaky injectors" dumping fuel into the cylinders while off and flooding the engine. I have seen this on Early fuel injected engines.
The only way I know is to look for a small puff "if you will" of black smoke after the start, sootie substace in the tail pipe,or a decrease in fuel economy.

Fastest response time on the planet, thnx Polar. Will have a look. There has been a decrease in economy.
One test we did was to disconnect the fuel pipe to gauge the amount that came through on cranking - there was an initial spurt followed by drought. Is this norm or does it point towards the fuel pump?
