Hot Start Problem

I need some good suggestions here...
As some of you may know late this summer I had my local garage swap the fuel
pump (it was noisy). When they changed the waterpump they accidentally broke
the cold start switch, which they replaced with the standard Boschpart.
From late Aug, till now Ive had a mysterious hot start problem. If I stop to
fill gas (say 5min) the car starts right up.
But if I park and come back say 10-15 min. the car cranks but is impossible
to start.
Since not much had been done to this DeLorean over the last years before I
got it, I remember to have read that changing the fuel accumulator would be
the thing to do (supposedly it cures 95% of all hot start problems).
Well, this was changed by my garage but unfortunately I have to say that my
DeLorean is in the other 5% scale...
It still wont start when hot.
When I turn the key, EVERYTHING ENGAGES, the engine cranks but just wont
start. When the engine is cold it fires right up.
So...since a new fuel accumulator didnt solve the hot start problem, what
will? Please help.
