GM has had a history of hard hot starts beginning with some Chevy trucks.
The problem was the heat from the exhaust system was hot-soaking the
starter causing inumerable problems. You might try building a heat shield
for the starter out of sheet steel,or, see if any GM dealer has a shield
cheap(!) that you could convert. Also check Olds service flyers for info
on this problem.
