My 78 99EMs had a hot start problem {which is now fixed, thanks to my local vintage SAAB fixer and DougM, who attached the picture that I needed). However, I've had one occasion since where it wouldn't start when warm, but I think I flooded it. My procedure for starting a cold car is to pump it three times and then floor it and hit the starter. This always works immediately. What do you do when it's warm, especially when it's only been sitting a few (10-20) minutes? Unfortunately, 26 year old cars don't usually come with an owner's manual.
