Hello daveb284.
P38 2.5dse.120 k on the clock very good condition. Never had this hot start problem. The P38 starts first time even in the cold and is alittle num at first but will go, when warm is like the sh t off the old shovel, however I am not sure if the P38 as been chipped as I am not too sure what I would be looking for. Two things I picked up on with your thread is the 284, was my racing No years ago, and Leeds. I am a Leeds lad and live just out side now in Birstall.
