You might need a new starter. Starting when cold, not starting when hot, and starting again after cooling down is a sign of a heatsoaked starter with worn contact points. You can replace the contact points or buy a whole new starter.

Another one I can think of is the cam angle sensor.

When it doesn't run, what happens? Does the engine still turn over trying to start or does nothing happen at all?
