I used to fly a G-Baron and it was a bitch to start hot on a hot Florida ramp in the summer. Those IO-550s in those tight cowls, with ac compressors on them got HOT fast. They would vapor lock too. Proper technique was critical.
My P337H has been much easier to deal with in similar situations.
The big Piper singles are notorious for hot-start issues. I've more than once had to go over and help a pilot with proper hot-start technique. Its surprising how many have no clue.
