That used to happen to me with my old chevy 350 v8. one time when it was happening some guy told me to hold the pedal to the floor while cranking it, and it actually worked. it probably has something to do with gas evaporating faster because the engine is so hot.
Does it crank,Turn over? If not it probably is a problem called "heat soak".. the starter is hot just from engine heat and wil not function. If it cranks but will not start i would check to see if it is getting spark.. if not than check the IGN module in the distributer. Do not replace it until you have it checked, costly part, i think Orilly auto parts has a machine to check it.. Could also be a ign coil going bad.. (coil slight chance)

4 years is a problem try empting the gas tank. and put the supreme gas in it on a full tank. check the coolent fluid and if problem still exsist check the fan

Not enough information.If it cranks real slow,it is the starter.It gets hot and the fields and armature swell from the heat and after it cools they shrink back and it will turn over faster again.If it cranks fast but won't start,the check the things the other guys have already told you.
