    My VP loves winter, only likes summer when the weather gets no higher the about 37'c.
    Then when I turn on the ignition, I hear the fuel pump start, the engine cranks over but
    the engine won't kick over.

    Any suggestions?

    Maybe crank angle sensor?
    Eg will start when engine cold, runs till it warms up then stalls & won't restart.
    When it happens, pour some cold water over the sensor ( front of engine rh side next to crank pulley). If that works then the sensor is cracked & needs replacing.
