Default won't turn over when hot

So I got it running and rode around the neighborhood to just test it out. Stalled once and tried to restart and it did not seem to have enough power to spin it over. After a few minutes it started with no issue and then after 5 min of running it would not start again. It would get to the compression stroke and just not spin it over. The Neutral light went out as well. I have been reading around on here and there seems to be alot of people upgrading cables to 4GA and I even saw a conversion for the ford starter solenoid. Supposedly this is a new Hi torque starter but I can't confirm that. Do the raptors have an issue with the battery cables? By the way it was acting I am not thinking it is the starter but I could be wrong.

Double check your valve clearances.

I did not lean to it being a battery problem since it starts fine when cold but I will double check this.

I was planning on checking this down the road. I did see something on this somewhere. Guess I will be doing it sooner than I thought.
