How do you know that it is cutting fuel and not something ignition-related? Just curious how you ruled out the ignition system. I ask because the most common causes of a no-start-when-warm condition is heatsoak of some failing electrical component, like the ICM, coil, opti, etc.

i thought it was at first so it has a brand new ignition, new opti, icm and coil. and when its dead if you squirt brake cleaner in the throttle body it'll start right up.
