It is also the lack of fuel...

an empty chamber will not flow fuel into the ventury of the carb so no fueling will occure after the inital vapour has be consumed!

will let you guys know when I have some more news.

On my car, if I try to start it after a few mins when its hot, it is reluctant to start.
But if I leave it over night in the garage it starts OK.

In my case its not lack of fuel as the chamber hasn't refilled.
I also have tried forcing the fuel pump on to refill the chamber, when investigating my hot start problem. But had the same result.

I can well belive that some cars will lose enough fuel not to start though! It gets mighty hot by there!
