Question My Chevy Blazer doesn*`t start, after the engine is turned off for a couple of hours

My Chevy Blazer doesn*`t start, after the engine is turned off for a couple of hours.
Technical detail: '97 Chevy Blazer LT S10, 4,3 litre vortec engine
The car runs fine, but after I turned off the engine for a while, it doesn't start.
In the beginning, about one year ago, it started hardly and became worse.
I could help myself for the summer, with a trick. I turned the key for only one second and repeated this several times, but then my starter broke down.
Meanwhile it only starts, when i spray brake cleaner or start pilot into the airfilter, or if I throw a glass full of fuel in the carburator.
Very shortly after I did that, I can turn the engine off and on again. I live in Germany, so I can't find a SPECIALIST for this car.
The following has been done already:
Fuel pump = replaced
Fuel filter = replaced
Fuel pressure regulator = replaced
Fuel pressure tested = 56,56 psi
Airfilter = replaced
Spark plugs = replaced
Does anybody know this specific problem?
