The things that hold up the rest pressure are the fuel pump check valve, the accumulater, and the pressure regulator on the fuel distributer. Since you did the check valve and the accumulator I would clean the pressure regulator. Make sure there are no leaks at any connection. Since you say your rest pressure is holding I am guessing that your pick-up coil in the distributer may be bad. The next time you have a hard hot start (and you say the plug swap doesn't help) check for spark. You can also check and clean the wires on the ballsat resistors.

The hotstart persisted so the check valve on the pump was also replaced. I still have a hot start issue and dont want to guess. No matter how long I crank, it wont start, it has to cool for about 2 hours. Doing a plug swap does not allow it to start, and did not allow it to start since I've had the problem.
