Default S1 bad starting when hot

My mates S1 doesn't all ways start when it's hot. It will spin over fine but won't fire, but if he sprays a little bit of easy start into the inlet it fires first time. We have tried a the cold start injector and coolant sensor under the inlet manifold but still doesn't start. Has anyone had this trouble before or does anyone have any idea what it could be?

cheers
