Default Car not Starting After it Runs Fuel Problem

Ok the car starts and runs and drives. but when i turn it off and wait about 5 minutes it doesnt start just cranks. but if i wait about and hour or longer it starts up.

No when it dosent start i just take a 12mm or 17mm and break the Bango bolt loose the bolt on top of the Fuel filter. then try to start it up and it fires right up.

Now i replaced the Fuel pump Do you think its the fuel Filter.
