Had both hot and cold start problems with my 99T. Hot start problem was cured with a new fuel accumulator. Mine had a subtle leak that bled the pressure slowly, affected hot starts after sitting 10-15 minutes until it cooled enough for the cold start valve to work. Cold start problem was due to a loose wire that activated the cold start valve on the starter/solenoid wire cluster. I don't believe the warm-up reg affects hot starts. A possiblity is the check valve in the fuel pump could be grungy, allowing fuel to seep backwards into the tank.
It is my understanding that this was a common problem for 99s and 900s, and at one time they made a "hot start kit" that activated the cold start valve to overcome pressure loss in the system. I don't know if a kit is available any more.
