Ok when I run my car for an hour and then let it sit for about 20 minutes it wont start back up for like another hour. It runs good when it running. I had the fuel pump and pressure checked. And it was good what could it be?

So where is the crank sensor located at? Do I need to use a heat wrap or should instaling a new 1 fix the problem? Is there any thing else it could be?
