[T3] Running hot

[Mark Healey <marksvw@healeyonline.com>]

<x-flowed>I've had problems with my car running hot for some time now.  I've tried 
several pressure sensors.  The one I have in now is still sealed.  I've 
checked the fuel pressure, OK.  I did the resistance checks on the temp 
sensors, OK.

One weird thing.  Somehow air seems to get into the fuel lines.  If I 
just get in after the car has set for a day or so it takes about 10 
seconds to start.  If I run the fuel pump without starting the car for 
that 10 seconds it fires right up.

Could enough air be getting into the fuel lines to cause it to run lean?
