Default 89 not starting when hot....HELP

I have an 89 6 spd with 50k miles. I have replaced the battery and starter. Problem went away for 2 weeks, tonight would not start after driving 1 hour. I thought problem was heat related to starter. Car is all stock. What is next step???

It could be a number of things. Need to know if it turns over or if you get nothing at all.

The ICM could have a problem.
