engine won't start after driving unless left alone for a few mins
i did a searched and couldn't find anything on this topic. i have a 99 LS swap in my eg and i want to know what the problem is. everytime i drive my car and then turn it off to pump gas or swing by a store to get something to drink i start up the car again then it starts but then the motor starts stuttering and shuts off. after that happens i leave the motor alone and after 5 mins or so it starts up fine again. i checked the spark plugs, wires, injectors and they're all good. any help would be great and if you searched this topic and found something on it TIA.

i had the same problem just as my radiator gave up on me.
check your rad fluid and radiator fan
I'm prolly way off, but just to be on the safe side

And what would cause it to pressurize by letting it sit for a few mins?
Next time it happens, your turn your key from the off position to the on position (not start), listen for the fuel pump to prime. If you don't hear it, I gaurantee it's the main relay.
