I would check fuel pressure, check for proper PSI. Yours should be above 55 but still check a manual. Also make sure it holds that PSI for at least 10 min. Since you problem is when it's hot then test it hot. Also it may be a sensor messing up. I have seen the Crank Angle sensor mess up when heated up and not send the signals to send fuel. Can you elaborate on the exact symptom of "barely turning over"?
