So today I opened the hood to start planning my next step to trying to solve this hot start problem. I was going to try to wrap the fuel lines with some rubber hose or maybe try to cobble up some sort of heat shield. I started tracing the fuel lines to decide how to proceed and their routing seemed somewhat odd. Both lines run very close to both the engine block and the top radiator hose. The alternator is new to the vehicle so I was wondering if maybe the person who installed the new alternator inadvertently rerouted the lines incorrectly? Also both lines looked slightly crimped in the bend around the valve cover en route to the carburetor. As far as the mention of possible coil issues, I noticed a few dangling wires and was wondering if someone could guide me as to what is going on with these
