Well I'm trying to decide what my ignition issue is on my drag hatch. After I make a full pass and the car is warmed up, if I shut it off in the pits and try to start it back up it will not start. I have to take a plug wire off and ground it as if I was checking spark, as soon as it arcs the car will start. Once in a blue moon the wire will arc across ground and not start, I can try it 5 mins later and it will. The car has never quit while running though. I want to say its the ignitor because of the way you get it to run but also I know coils take a crap when there hot too. I just wanted to see if anyone has ever had the same problem and what the solution was. The car is on Ectune if that helps in any way. Thanks.

Yea the only problem with that is it will prob check out cold but I will have to run it again and check it at the track to see what it reads when its not starting. I will prob check it today just to see what it says cold.
