Default Sunfire hot start issue

HI and thanks for taking time to read this, so I have a 96 get sunrise with a 2.4 l twin cam engine and if I run the engine for more than ten minutes and then shut it off it either will not start or will start then dies and then not start. When I say not start the engine is cranking so it'* not a starter issue. I have tried changing my fuel filter, spark plugs, crankshaft sensor, and camshaft sensor. When it is running it runs great. Thanks again for your time, any help would be immensely appreciated. There are no error codes at the moment

When it won't start, spray some carb cleaner into the intake, and see if it starts....if it runs as long as you spray, then you have a fuel delivery problem......either no/low pressure or the injectors are not firing(Security problem)....
