Two things come to mind....
1- a electrical component may be heat sensitive and not function after turn off heat soak
2- your fuel pump check valve isn't holding fuel pressure in the fuel loop 
Next time check for spark...if thers's spark it's a fuel problem

2002 alero ran.shut off won't restart.Replaced fuel filter,now it gets gas,but still won't start.

For some reason aleros have this problem every once in awhile. It might be the security on the alero. What you would have to do is turn the key all the way to accel i believe right before you start it and let it sit for about 13 minutes. affter this the security will recognise itself and start your car

Car starts fine after sitting awhile. If you drive awhile then stop and try to restart it won't.

Check the electronics,cam sensor or crank sensor these are the culprits.

Car runs fine but after driving turn off engine sometimes it wont restart for hours

This sounds like a hot fuel pump issue. The pump is getting hot on the circuit and is cutting out.

Car will start after awhile it bogs down and dies

The engine in this car is controlled by a computer, whenever you have a stall like this the computer will record a fault code for the event, you must have the system scanned to get that code, then based on the code you start the diagnostic to repair the problem, which in your case is likely a CKP sensor. But that is just a guess, don't replace anything until the testing confirms it is the problem.

91 diesel trouble starting chevy suburban

I would be more suspicious of the fuel system. Have you changed the filters lately? Do you have a 6.2 or a 6.5?
