Default wont start when warmed up!!

I have a 92 civic with the 1.6 Dohc vtec engine, the car starts fine when cold but when the car is warmed up and if you turn the engine off for a few minutes (at a petrol station etc) the car will start then stall, if you try again straight away it just turns over on the starter motor....If you leave it for a couple of minutes and try again it will start...
I've so far replaced the spark plugs, HT leads and the dissy cap and the problem is still there..

I'm a bit stuck and don't know where to start looking for the problem so any help would be great....

yeah thats your fuel pump relay, usually its just as easy as hitting the reset button on it and it works fine but honda wants you to pay a couple hundred for them to fix it

Found the relay today and spoke to Honda to see how much a new one ones, I was glad I was sat down when he told me!!
These things are expensive for such a small box with switchs in it....
