hot reatta

My reatta has 63,000 miles. After the car is warmed up and shut of it will not start again for about an hour. I have replaced the coil assembly and the coolant temp. sensor. Any ideas?

Re: hot reatta

What year is your Reatta?

Is it a convertible?

Does it crank, but not start, or nothing at all?

Does the dash light up, or flicker when it won't start?

In what state/city or region are you located?

Need a little more info to help.

Re: hot reatta

My reatta is a 1990 and the dash does flicker on and off. It's been doing that for about a year before I started having trouble starting when hot. The starter works but it wont turn over for about an hour.

I live in Mass. My reatta is a hardtop with a moonroof and the dash does flicker on and off.

mine did the same thing eversince i got it, it would flicker off while i would be driving and then come on seconds later, i suggest u get it checked out, probably a short or somthing. one day it will completly go out like mine, lets just hope it doesnt start a electrical fire in yours... (mine just poured smoke through the dash..)

Re: hot reatta

Time to ask Jim Finn for a good replacement dash cluster
