Default Hot start problems???

Im having a problem with my car starting? In the morning or on cold starts it fires up just fine and runs perfectly... But on a warm start or hot restart it wont crank. I have to hold to gas to the floor to fire it up then it runs like **** for aboout 10-15 minutes. also throwing codes.Ive checked alot of things and i think it may be my ECT sensor but im not positive. Has anyone else had this problem? Can anyone tell me what it is im stumped

Go to your nearest parts store and have them scan it for free. Write down the code numbers that it gives u and we can start from there. A check engine light does not really tell us much in the way of diagnostics.
