More spark energy needed in hot environment?
Mixture lean when warm, more spark needed to ignite?
Let us know how it works out. I have a heat-soak stumble that i can't find, so I'm always looking for solutions.

In my case it was merely that the rotor arm was going high-resistance. Normally it has a 1K ohm resistance for interference suppression purposes. Mine was breaking down under heat as things get pretty hostile at the top of an M104 engine.
