Mk2 2000 mx 5 starting issues

Hi I have a MX5 Mk2 X reg, the issue is when it gets warm it cuts out and doesn’t want to start again until it has cooled down. This is an intermittent fault, i have changed the engine relay and now i am stuck! Any help would be much appreciated
Many Thanks

I’d suspect fault camshaft sensor, the one of the front of the cam cover. It doesn’t give a fault code so you may just have to throw one on it and see. You could check it for an output to prove it while it’s faulting if you have a test meter.

Defo coolant temp sensor at top rear of engine. 3pin in triangular shape plug

Thank you both will try it and update results on here
