Starting Problem
I have a Mazda RX8 2005 with 138k miles on it. It usually starts like a champ on a cold start but i've noticed that lets say I go to the gas station turn off the car and put gas. After i try it start it again in about a 5 minute period it sorta struggles to start. I really dont know where to start looking to see how to fix the problem. I've also noticed that when i fill it with Premium gas it has a better chance of starting better than with that unleaded. Any ideas of where i should start?
Thanks!
Thanks!

So that's the first place to start.
The new owners thread is the second place to continue your journey.
Hot re-start issues tend to be:
Weak ignition components (ignition coils, spark plug wires, spark plugs)
Weak Starter motor
Weak Battery
Weak Fuel pump
Weak Engine Compression
Most people who have hot re-start issues tend to find that the upgraded replacement starters are a good cure, if their engine compression is good, and their ignition system is good.
