500 SE W140, won't start when hot!

My 92 W140 500se has just rolled past 90K, when it decided to refuse to start when hot, and occasionally cuts out on the overrun when hot. Starts instantly when cold!

Help!

Thanks for the info. I'll try the crankshaft sensor first, I know the price of the ignition module. Where can I get the Bosch part direct, please?

Cheers
