i have a 93 laser non turbo 2.0, i am having a problem when i go out and fire it up it starts right up and runs fine...so i take it for a run and it drives fine, then when i come back and turn it off and try to start it again it just sits there and turns over but wont start.....if i live it sit overnight and try it again the next day it starts right up......it has me stumped....any ideas?
 
could it be the ecu.....it runs fine when first started but once it heats up it stalls and wont start back up...i can let it set for a cuople of hours go back out and it will start right back up until it gets warm...then stalls again
 
Well thats not usually the cause for a heat problem but you never know. When cold you could try blowing on the ECU with a hair dryer to see if that heat makes it fail. Also look inside ECU to see if you have any leaking capacitors or burned areas.
