It is a pressurized diaphram and over time it looses its ability to hold the fuel pressure when hot and it does not allow good hot starts. it can be a couple other things, but the accumulator is a common one when the car is running well otherwise. Actually I have a new accumulator on its way to me for the same diagnosis, not a big deal. Good luck and YEA!
I forgot to ask him how the old plugs were
guess if there was a big oily mess he would have mentioned it?

I showed him the old disc cap & rotor
He said the dis cap was ok & to keep it as a spare
it really has min wear on it
rotor he said wan't bad but bit burnt

Heck I'll take the acumulator fix over fuel inj or dist anyday!!!

Part wasn't much

I'm really glad if thats the fix

did start right up after 40 minutes sit

think that would have probably been close to my hard restart time.

OOOOH I hope

Would be so nice!!!!!!
