After Car has been running for awhile then shut off the engine seems to start rough. Some times you have to pump the gas pedal. This only happens when the engine is hot. When cold it starts great.

check your fuel pressure regulator and see if it is leaking. it is located on the upper intake by the throttle body. pull the vaccum hose off and see if there is fuel in it.
