Default Help!!!!!!

ok i have a 95 Z28 automatic with a K&N FIPK and a flowmaster catback(i don't know if that matters) but the car will start up fine when its cold ... and it will run perfect....but if i shut it off when it is warm it will not re-start..... it will just crank over.... it has fuel(i know because thats all you smell). but i'm thinking it might be either the ignition module or the coil but i have no idea..... i am running the OE coil and ignition module from 95 and they have 120,000 miles on them.... any advice would help out tremendusly(sp?)..........

thanks guys
nick

ignition coil sounds about right, overheating and shutting off.

it could also be a loose timing chain.
