I have a 2008 Toyota tacoma double cab, long bed 4.0 L automatic, 200k miles. Just installed a new radiator, new starter and transmission. This problem started before all the repairs. Drive the truck for awhile turn it off. Won't start. Open the hood for 5 mins., it starts. The hotter it is outside the longer I have to wait for it to cool down before it starts. The engine runs cool. Is there something in the engine compartment that could cause this?
Looked it up, the symptoms don't match. Any other suggestions?
Is it cranking or not, when you try to start it?
Change the coolant temperature sensor.
@yaser may be on to something.
If it doesn’t crank, check all wiring.
If it cranks, it could be a lot of things -
