Default b18b engine problems after doing swap.

I did b18b1 swap in my ej1 and first week it worked great. When summer came I started to have problems starting the engine after driving it. The engine will crank but will not start when hot. I replaced main relay and checked my grounds. Also tried pumping fuel many times before cranking. it looks like im not getting sparks when my engine is hot. when it cools it will start.Please help me solve this.
thanks
