Would appreciate thoughts here. 2002 sport trac, 4.0. Runs fine, when it is shut off and tried to re-start without cooling down will act like it is out of fuel, starts, sputters, and dies. Seems to do it when shut down period is 10 minutes or so - for example when you go into the store, and come back out and try to leave. Has done this 2 or three times now. Almost acts like it is vapor locked. I got a new relay, and replaced the relay when it was acting up, and no improvement. Thinking it is the fuel pump?

Best thing to do will be to check the fuel pressure when it doesn't start.
