Help - hard hot start 200

(I guess my previous attempt to post this didn't go through)

My 1982 242 turbo is very hard to start after its been driven awhile and then sits for a while. Cold starts are no problem; it starts right up. Also, after being driven, if I try to re-start immediately after turning off the ignition, it will start right up. It's when its been sitting a while that the problem happens.

I just replaced the accumulator, which is what my mechanic thought the problem probably was. It doesn't seem to have helped.

Any advice? Thanks.
