The gas line runs from the fuel pump which is mounted on the right front of the engine, down and back. I have duals on it and it is possible, since I don't recall actually looking at the gas line, that it may come close to an exhaust?
The car runs great otherwise. Idols great, doesn't balk when I goose it.
I haven't driven it much lately with the weather turning colder.

How fast does it crank? If the advance is too far it might start when cold. I had the same (and am still to some extent) with a distributor advance, cold no problem, hot it would barley start at times. If it sounds like (during crank, hot) like a low battery it is probably timming too far advanced. I ended up replacing my distributor because of it being worn out.
