The car starts when its cold runs good but if I turn it off after the engine has warmed up it wont start again until the engine cools off again. It has new fuel pump and filter and ignition control module. Someone said its not getting any fire. What do I need to check next?

If the problem is temp related, check the coolant temp sensor. When problem is ongoing, if it cranks good but won't start, have a helper crank it while you visually check for spark at the spark plugs. Check for proper fuel pressure. Also, check that the fuel pressure holds for a bit with key off. Check the vacuum line at fuel pressure regulator see if any gas in the vacuum line.
