Hi,
I have a 1996 Range Rover 4.0 that I have had since it was new. I has 37,000 original miles and has not had the best maintenance lately. Anyhow the car startrs fine when its cold and will go anywhere once its running. However as soon as it gets warm and the car is turned off it will nat start again until it has cooled down for an hour or two, then it fine until it gets up to temp and its the same thing all over again. Has anyone got an idea as too where I should start looking in order to solve this problem?

Thank you
