not sure if you have a fuel accumulator, which is next to fuel pump, but this i was the problem with my 380SE. After it wrmed up it would take a lot of cranking and sputtering before it would start. Fuel accumulator keeps fuel from vaporizing in the injector lines and thus prevents hard start when hot.
