engine will not start when hot

Need help! My 89 Firebird will not start when engine is hot. I have to wait 20 or so minutes and then it'll start again. What causes this? Appreciate the help. john

The Member Rides section is not the appropriate place for posting Technical questions, so I have moved to the the General Engine/Tech section.
