Did you check spark while it was hot? For no particular reason, I would
suspect that your coil is intermittent according to temperature.
You might also do a compression check while it is hot in case its
some kind of bizarre crack or something that saps compression when
its allowed to expand enuf. If you're convinced its fuel system,
I would expect something sticking or cracked in the carb itself, as
the rest of the fuel system isn't going to know what temperature it is.
