Engine dies when warmed up, no warm restart
Hi folks, I'm stumbling through this, so any help is appreciated. My 95 Corolla starts fine cold, but after I run it up to the store, it won't restart for about a 1/2 hour or so. Did some checking and if I start it and let it idle it dies in about 5 mins or so. Been trying to get smarter by surfing for answers, but have not solved it yet. I changed plugs, wires, dist & rotor tried a new coolant temp sensor (was questioning the auto parts guy tho. The one he gave me goes in right near / under the dist. with 2 wire harness. The receipt said radiator switch?? but he double checked it and said it was correct...) Anyway, i tried it and no change, so I took it back. I've cleaned the throttle body.
* It will restart with starting fluid sprayed in, and run briefly.
* I have engine code 14
Like I said, I'm fumbling through, but seems like a fuel issue?? what/how can i test further. Any and all Help is appreciated!!
*have a fuel pressure gauge but now see that I need a special adapter !! arggghhh.
