1996 W210 E300d stalling when warm

Hello!
Thanks to all the contributors to the many threads I read trying to solve my issue!
Problem: Engine stalls when after about 20mins of idle on a hot day. When trying to restart, it almost, almost, almost, almost, nope not gonna start. It acts like low fuel pressure. What a few hours for everything to cool off and bam, fires off almost instantly like normal and purrs like the turtle it is. The car is white with beige interior btw.

Actions:
I decided to throw a new OEM K40 at it that I bought here. No love. Zero change in results. I hear the SOV and everything clicking but I'm wondering if the solenoid in the SOV has become weak and partially closes? Is my IP crapping out?

Here go's:
Last summer, peak of the heat here in North Carolina I'm on the road visiting customers. Sat idling, AC cranked for over an hour while on a conference call when it just stalled. The ignition and everything stayed hot but engine died. Tried starting for another 20mins. Also tried while powering up my inline pump from the time before I replaced all soft fuel lines with OEM including the SOV o-ring. No start. Wife to the rescue and back I came the next day with the trailer. It fired right up and went onto the trailer. After that it sat until the fall when I went back after it and started driving it around for local trips around town. Problem never resurfaced. Temps started rising in the spring and on one hat afternoon it died just before I could throw it in park t my house. That was a sign.
