Embarrassing gas and leakage...

[jriewer]

No this isn't a post for adult diapers....

I have a ’87 420SEL with 145K miles, with original fuel injectors, experiencing a warm start problem like so many others who have posted here. If I restart the car within 10 minutes of shutting off, it will start up again fine. Any longer than that and I will have to crank it several times before it turns over. So it appears to be leaking fuel injectors which I’m going to change soon. So if I understand the problem, fuel continues to leak into the combustion chamber after I shut the car off creating a very rich mixture that can not combust. But the next morning when my engine is cold, the car starts fine. How come the extra fuel that leaked into the combustion chamber last night while the car was sitting in the garage doesn’t cause me to have a rough start in the morning? Thanks for your replies.
