Default 92 5.0 won't start

Hello I hope someone can help me I have a 92 stock 5.0 and I'm trying to get her running I got the car to run but after the car warms up and u shut off the car it will crank over but wont start I have good spark good fuel pressure and the injectors are working. I've replaced the coil, the whole distributor and fuel pump. And same problem If someone has advise for me that would be great . The only thing I can think is that the problem is heat related

Yes when I changed the distributor I did change the TFI module. I was told the other day when I was asking around about this problem a guy told me that the wiring harness for the TFI were known to go out I don't know if this is true or not .

When you pulled the distributor, how did you ensure it went back correctly. You could be off a tooth now, which would cause the car to not run right.
