I have a 2002 Tahoe with the 5.7 and it does the same thing it will start first thing in the morning and run fine but when I get to work at the end of the day to jump in and go home it won’t start. Everything cranks and lights up like it should but no fire when it’s hot out

I have the same problem with my 2011 suburban. Won’t start when it’s hot outside. No problem in the morning or wintertime. Spent $2500 throwing parts at it with dealership. Clueless.
