Engine starts but loses power when it warms up. Almost as if car has no fuel and switches off replaced fuel pump, engine was recently overhauled. Is it maybe a sensor issue. Please advise on possible faults, note that I have not done an engine diagnosis yet using a machine

This car isn't sold here in the US so I can't be a whole lot of help but the first thing you need to do is have the codes read to see if you can come up with a starting point.
You might also want to test the fuel pressure although I don't have the pressure spec available to me.
