Is this the same for later gens? My gen 3 has some pretty inconsistent starting characteristics, but I haven't had a chance to get a gauge to hook to the fuel rail yet. Not always a hot start issue either, every once in a while it does it on the first start of the morning, but not nearly as noticeable as after some heat soak. It's not necessarily that it doesn't "start" either, more just like it starts really weakly. By that I mean you hear it catch and fire so you let go of the button and sometimes it just barely keeps itself going at what could only be a few hundred rpm at most before coming up to idle. It's almost like a hit and miss engine where you think it's dead and it just rolls over enough to hit the next cylinder. Giving it some throttle during cranking when it doesn't fire right away seems to pretty reliably start it well though, so thinking it's something else.
