85 won't start when hot

Possibly missing heat shield to the starter. Possibly engine running too hot. Possibly bad starter. What brand reman was it? Possibly bad wiring to the starter or poor ground conections. This can sometimes be overcome with a starter booster kit. This kit usually is a relay that supplies power from the battery bypassing the ign. switch and interior wiring. It almost sounds like a poor Battery Positive connection at the starter.

Weak battery. When the starter is hot it takes more juice to get it going. This is more prevalent on automatic A2s too because of the starter location being closer to a heat source.

Forgot to say...also check and make sure your 12V positive battery lead to the starter is in good shape as well as the main ground cable from the battery to the chassis (or maybe it's the engine...I forget offhand where it goes to). If they're bad replace them...if they're good, just make sure the connections are nice and clean.
