I think that taking a shotgun approach is not the way to go. It can be 
very expensive because you will be replacing good parts and you may 
also damage some. If necessary start at the beginning and troubleshoot 
foward. Maybe you should start with a complete tune-up. Bad spark 
plugs or dirty injecters could cause these symptoms and you may have 
more than 1 problem. Even a bad set of ignition wires could be part of 
the problem. A bad fuel accumulater is indicated by hard hot start so 
at this time I think you can rule out fuel tank, fuel pump, filter, 
accumulater, cold start valve?. You need to get a fuel pressure gauge 
set-up so you can correctly determine fuel pressures but at this point 
you can't rule out ignition problems. It could possibly be a 
combination of both. To start somewhere if it hasn't had a recent 
tune-up that may be the way to go. If you have inspected the fuel tank 
and it is clean then the fuel system is probably mostly in good shape. 
Just thinking out loud. Good Luck.
