Overheating effects starting up



  Mini Cooper S JCW


last week i broke down twice, 1 of the reasons was that my engine wouldnt start.

this happened previously before but only occured to me that it was related as the AA bloke said it was loose connections on my starter motor.

BUT this happened again on sat, and the connections are fine, BUT i noticed the engine was still very hot and the fan carried on running while the engine was off (this is normal i expect).

but it wouldnt start immediatly after..... so i came to the conclusion

when ur engine is very hot (as in, the needle on the 3/4 mark on temp guage). your engine wont start til its cooled down?
