Restarting problem

Hey,

My car will start fine in the morning, but when I drive it around, it wont start back up...I have to pop the hood and wait about 10min for it to cool down before it starts again. Ive tried replaceing the starter, rotor and igition module. Ive also heard that it might be a MAF burn-off relay...but i have a 305 TBI...any suggestions?

starter could be getting too hot. Maybe try a shield or somethin to block the heat off it. Try a search, I have saw this problem before on here.

Does the engine not even crank, or does it crank and not start?

If the engine cranks for an extended period without starting, you may have a leaking injector. If the engine will not even crank, start looking at the starter.
