Hard start when hot points to a few things. In particular a very dirty air filter or poor battery connections, especially the ground. If you check those two things and replace air filter as needed and clean up battery connections things should improve.

with the motor running, pull the vacuum line going to the fuel pressure regulator, look, feel and sniff for fuel, chances are you have a bad FPR, symptoms, easy cold starts, hard hot starts

is your 4.5 throttle body injection? or is it PFI?
