Red face 69 911S Hard Starting

1969 911s doesn't like to start when hot. When it's cold it starts no problem. Someone told me to check the throttle bodies. Doesn't sound right to me but I'm a novice on this setup. Any suggestions?nullnull

If the car has mechanical fuel injection, the Porsche factory manual suggests that you start the car at full throttle when hot. I know it sounds wrong, but it works.

Hello

Check your spark plugs or use your nose, is hot start to rich ?

Average routine is to check the start magnet for propper function.
