I have a '93 5.0 lx with very low miles. The car starts cold and runs perfect. When I shut it off and try to restart it while its hot it either hesitates and starts or doesnt start at all. I can wait till it cools and restart it fine or I can jump it and it also runs fine.
It has a new mini high torque starter w heat wrap, a new 140amp alternator, and a new battery. Need some suggestions

Ignition module that's mounted on the distributor AKA TFI module. Known to have issues with overheating and causing your problems. Does the car ever shut down when running? Most likely this is the culprit.

Never shuts down while running. Even if I have to jump it from not starting it still runs perfect. So if the problem is the ignition module overheating how would I solve the problem? Thanks for the help

it's a cranking insue, not a start/run issue......anyway to the Op...make sure all connections are tight and that the battery is good, how did you wire it???......you need to perform voltage drop tests on the wiring befoe and after connection transitions.
