1995 Pontiac Grand Am 4 cyl Two Wheel Drive Automatic

Hi1 I have a 1995 pontiac grand am 2.3L quad 4 that my wife drives. When the runs for a while and gets hot, it will shut off. After it sit for twenty minutes, it will start and run fine again, till it heats up again. I replaced the fuel pump. Any ideas? Thanks for your help!

This could be many things. I would check the fuel pump relay, crank position sensor, and engine coolant temp sensor to begin with. Whats happening is, and open circuit is being created when one of these items gets hot. When it cools, it will complete the circuit again
