Default Starting problems when engine is warm

My 1990 jeep renix lately has had some problems when I try and start my car after it has been running for awhile(at about 190 degrees.)

When I try and start up my car after it's been running it will sometimes idle real high then die right away. Some times I can save it by pressing on the gas pedal, but most of the time there is no response when I press down on the gas.

When it does die I have to let my car sit for about 5-10 minutes before it starts back up.
I replaced my IAC valve today and that helped my idling a bit because I had a lot of oil going into my airbox for awhile until I replaced a clogged vacuum line...

Any ideas?

Thanks
