B16a won't start when its warmed up *SOLVED bad starter solenoid*
Just started my car after not driving it for a while and it started up right away all the relays clicked fuel pump primed everything sounded good. Then drove it for 10 to 15 min then parked it tried to start it again and it didn't start. Double Checked main relay in my buddy's car with the same setup and works fine started his car. It seems like when the engine warms up its doesn't want tostart.

Well if it's not the main relay, check for good connections at the starter, I've had some vehicles when the car ran after a while and we're shut off, would not start. Turned out to be a starter problem. I don't wanna confirm a starter. Usually when it's something like this I've had main relays that were bad.

OP, you didn't state the chassis year, model and trim level... but if it happens to be an EK... or even an EG... the next most likely power distribution besides the main relay is the electronic key switch. It is not uncommon for heat to affect the solder joints in these switches... when failing, they tend to work better when cold and worse once warm.
