Sounds like George Braly has the answer.  It is the fuel pump!  Well, I
don't know about fuel pump or not, but I know that a hot engine just needs
more air to get started, fuel pump problem or not.  I have never had a
problem starting my engine when it is hot, and I don't know if there is a
problem with my fuel pump or not.  I have never "cooled my fuel pump."  You
just push the throttle to at least half or more open, mixture to idle cut
off and crank away.  It takes a little longer, but when it fires, push the
mixture in about half and grab the throttle quick and pull it back to about
a 1000 RPM position and lean a little on the mixture quick like.  Works
every time, fuel pump problem or not.
