Default not starting when warm

Hi all.
i have a problem!, my 1995 turbo 2000 wont start when even slightly warm as soon as the engine reads cold she starts. People have said fuel evaporation could be involved others have said all the sensors under the sun, but ive cleaned most of them and still nothing. Just wondered if anyone else has had a similar problem and how have you solved it. I cant use the car for anything other than work or when im definitely going to leave it for 2 hours, its a nightmare at the garage!!! please help!

Also, I think that a failing crank or cam sensor can be affected by heat (too hot), and therefore not give a signal. Just a thought...

All 3 as above are possible sources of this behaviour :
I had this and changed, in order
crank sensor
coolant temp sensor
camshaft sensor
Was only, I believe, when the last of these was changed was the issue resolved for good but many people have reported the same and I think and 1 of the 3 can be the root cause.
