Default My Magnum 500 won't start after warmup

[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img] My 99' Magnum 500 started acting up this week. Although it starts right up (cold start) and runs good, it will not restart if I shut it off after it is warmed up. It turns over fine but does not start. Only after letting it sit for about 15 minutes (presumably to let it cool off), will it start again. I put in a new plug but that made no difference. Is my Magnum vapor locking? Ingition coil going? Any ideas? Everthing I've check seems normal. Thanks in advance for any help!

Try useing the pull rope when it wont start. If compression feels low your valves need adjusting.

Don't let the hp numbers fool you. Its all in how you get it to the ground. Clutching clutching clutching!
