Hi; my engine starts and after some minuets its stop (we can say after something have heat ) and when it stop it don't start until I left it more than 20 minuets -may be- then it runs again. I replace fuel module and the problem is still. Thanks

check fuel pump relay for corrosion on prongs and try to clean off then put dielectric compound on prongs. then scan for codes there is a front control module that supply's power to fuel pump relay and it is part of tpim module so that may be the culprit.

Thanks: can you expect another cause? For example in air flow or spark plugs?

I kind of doubt it as it sounds more like no fuel getting to engine until the module cools down then it will run. if the module doesn't send a signal to turn pump on to relay would pretty much be it. it may pick it up if a pro scans it as auto parts scanners can only read engine/trans codes.
