Engine Mechanical problem
1986 Ford F150 V8 Two Wheel Drive Automatic

My Dad has a 1986 F-150 5.0 (FI) and he is having problems with the engine. when he drives to the nearest store 3 miles away after turning off the engine it will not start back up till the engine cools down.He has noticed that if he drives 1 mile the engine will trn back on after 5 minutes but the longer the drive the harder it gets to turn on (until it cools down). He has taken it to a mechanic and they cannot find the problem.

Can someone please give us some ideas

Thanks
