Won't start hot

Won't start hot was created by BigAl
Hey guy's,
I have recently started a new job and we have an acco (2001 build) with a cummins 230hp motor. It wont fire up when its hot without some help from the magic yellow spray can. At the moment there isnt time to take it off the road for more than a few hours at a time, so wanted to know if anyone may have had this before?
It starts fine cold and you can hear the fuel pump prime but when hot it just cranks and you cant hear it prime up.
Any help appreciated, looking to try and sort it out over a few days while its on its sort shift change break

Hi mate, try turning the key on and push the shut down solenoid back by hand. Its a common problem on C series cummins. Might be rattling back when you give her a hit with the can.
You will need a 12v one
