Default 156 2.0TS hot start problem

Hi,
My car (156 2.0TS, yr 2000, 50000mls) has a problem starting when hot
(i.e after it has been running for a while). It started happenning a
few weeks ago and seems to be getting worse. Once it cools down, it
starts fine, and it runs perfectly when hot. It just won't start again
if I shut it down.
When trying to start when hot, the engine is turning over fine, but
there is no ignition. (Seems like either spark or mixture is missing)

Any ideas?

Thx,
Ed

"Unmanaged" basic injection engines iirc have a problem with hot starts.
There lie a possibility.
