Your engine is made to run with a hot intake manifold to vaporize fuel and
get better mileage, that is NOT your problem. I'd suspect ignition, coil,
pickup (in distributor), brain on firewall. Try cranking in short bursts,
will it start just as you let off the key? If so, the 'start' side of the
ballast resistor is bad- those with electronic ign use a dual resistor, one
side to run, one side to start. When start side is bad it will fire if key
is released as engine 'coasts' through another compression stroke.
