Why is my Acura hard to start when hot?

I have an Acura Legend 1989, a very nice and reliable car until now. Sometimes (50% of the time) when I make a quick stop (at the gas station, for example) the car will not start again until after about 20 minutes.

I replaced the spark plugs, the wires, the distributor cap and rotor. I change the oil regularly. I add an injectors cleaner regularly.

Have you had a similar problem with your vehicle? Is there any sensor that needs to be replaced? What do you recommend besides getting rid of the car?
I know the problem is not the starter because the engine moves while trying to start the car.
