No start -engine hot

Something new for me. Ran out to the lake, shut the truck off and went to start it 2 minutes later. Cranking fast, no smoke, tach moving. Cooled down started fine. Fresh oil change earlier this week. Haven't checked for codes yet. Not in a panic yet, just wanting to prevent the wife getting stuck in town, etc.
Ideas?

3x on IPR o-rings. Cheap fix, although not too easy to reach...

Hmmm, I changed them 2 years ago, so kinda bypassed that thought. Thanks for the reminder. Like you say, cheap fix. And yes they're no fun to change.
Thanks guys.
