Sounds more like a fuel problem. When you shut it of hot, the fuel around the engine gets hot to. It is almost on the verge of turning to vapor. When it does turn to vapor in the line it causes what is called "vapor lock". To do more troubleshooting, next time you shut it off hot, open the hood and laeave it open so the hot air can escape. Then see if it still does it 10 minutes later when you start it. You might also try a can of fuel stableizer. Its also possible that it can be as simple as a fuel filter or even a fuel pump that is on its way out. Another thing to check is any tin sheilds around fuel lines that are missing. If its got that many miles on it, sometimes the fuel line itself can start to degrade and cause unusual intermittent problems.
