Major fuel pump problems, air leak, head gasket?
#3
Cold starts on veg are one of it's common features, but hot starts should be fine.

Veg does an incredible job stripping all the gunk out of the fuel lines, with all that gunk gone any tiny holes it was covering now allow air in the fuel system.
Main culprit is the fuel filter housing, but old and tired leak off pipes, end caps and fuel pipes love to leak too.

Don't forget the fuel feed runs below atmospheric pressure, so air is sucked in, instead of fuel leaking out.
