Default Hot start problem(searched)

I`ve searched and never really found a good answer, just replace something and try it out.

My car will start right up in the morning like as soon as you turn the key, bang it will fire up. I`ll drive to get coffee come back out and roll over, roll over then start. Sometimes when warm it will roll over catch then die, then try it again it stumble then starts. What i want to know is what starts working when the car is warm cause that`s what has to be causing this problem.

Checked the relay at lunch and it`s working fine. Took it right out hooked it to my battery and check the pins for continuity and the tester blinked on every pin that it was supposted to so and other suggestions.

He's right this will cause the problem you are having. Also it wont be a continuity problem until the relay green (brown) board warps and loosen connection due to heat. Bad soilder joints on the board. Pull it out and leave the cover off while driving and see if cures the problem or junkyard main relay to test.
