Same problem with my 01 Cabby. Would start when cold but not when hot. Found a loose negative battery connection. Tighten connection and problem solved.

I've had the same problem with my '86 Cabriolet. Mechanic hasn't found the solution. Any luck with yours?

These cars have a hot and cold start sensor you need to check there. Also check your starter the brushes might be wearing out
