Completely baffled

Hello everybody. My 84 Z28 with a 350 engine dies when it gets warm, especially after i shut the engine off and then restart it approx. 10 mins later. Feels like no fuel. i just replaced the distributor & coil thinking that was the problem to no avail. I have no idea what could be causing this. i have asked some mechanics i know and they all give me a different answer. Can anyone PLEASE help me out? I read somewhere that it could be the fuel boiling in the bowl (it has an e-Qjet carb.) Also, after about 10 or so minutes it will start and run just fine.


EDIT 8/16/2010: This problem has been solved. It turns out it was a crappy aftermarket electric fuel pump. Changing it back to a mechanical tomorrow.
