my six volt system has been working fine for the going on 30 years I have owned it. Did you at least file the points? I don't know about hot starting issues, mine starts very well when hot. Is the timing set correctly? Mine wasn't for a while and it didn't want to start very well.
Yes filed the points
Going to reset the timing with a vacuum guage today. I read on here for a couple hours before posting last night.
