Default Car wont start when warm

Ive replaced the distributer, coil, ignition module, ignition switch. I get in it at home it starts right up, I drive it to town go into the store it wont start. I tow it home it will start. If I turn it off when it is warm it wont start up. What else can I try? I do have fuel normal pressure.

You have to determine if you're losing spark or fuel.

You sure its not the starter, mine did this and my starter was getting heat soaked from the exhaust, it felt like it wanted to start but wouldn't, had to buy a new alternator and now i have the little heat sheild on it.
