When my truck is cold it starts without a problem. But when drive it and it warms up it will not start,
it cranls over but will not start. But once it cools down
again, it starts with no problem.

Hi gpsracer
I suppose on engine light is on so we need to check some basics.
When it won't start pull a plug wire hold to block crank spark?
If spark pull aie snorkle off spray some carb cleaner in throttle does it run?
Ket me know and will figure it out
