Truck runs fine in the winter or cool weather, however when it is hot and after driving awhile and shut the engine off it will not start. If you let it sit awhile or spray engine starter fluid into the air filter while someone turns the ignition it will start.

Check your fuel pressure to rule out the fuel pump. If it was the ignition system -doing the starter fluid will do no good.
