Engine not starting

Ok brand new to this thread but not as a mech.

My father-in-law has a F150 with the triton v8 that has a starting issue. It will start and run fine but when you drive it got to point b and shut the engine off it will not start.

If he waits for a hour or so it will start right up and he can drive it home.

He has put new injectors, plugs, fuel filter, and ful pump in it. I haven't had time to look at it.

Any suggestions

sounds like a fuel pump again. You or someone needs to check fuel pressure next time it will not start.

Turns over, but will not start? Fuel pressure test? that's where I'd start just to rule it out..
