[QUOTE="mike202, post: 635766, member: 17202"] It’s also sometimes called a ‘hard start relay’ modification. That is: it makes starting easier with the relay. Maybe the word hot is used as when everything has warmed up on a hot day driving and you crank the engine to re-start at the petrol station/ tea stop etc, the wires to the ignition switch will be warm/hot and so less conductive than when you set off from home when everything was cooler. This causes the voltage to drop even more. When I first put mine in I didn’t have any problems re-starting the engine. I did the mod any way to stop the starter from having to deal with all that current. [/QUOTE]
