Default New in N. Carolina with 1994 XJS V12 conv. Only starts cold

I am Don Ellington in mountains of North Carolina with a 1994 XJS V12 6L convertible with 65,000 miles.
I have had her since 8,000 miles in 1995 and given her great care and garage.
Check engine code FF77 came up
Mechanic replaced crank shaft position sensor #CSS961
Check engine light is out now but she only starts when cold......she will run as long as you want but if you cut her off once warmed up she will not start until you wait a long time to cool down and then she starts.
Since then we replaced both fuel pumps,strainers, and filter
Now mechanic says find a fuel pump module.....maybe that's it.
I can t find one and pray my problem could be something else.
Is it a coincidence that replacing the crank position sensor and the starting problem when warm happened at same time.
Or .....what could be causing this
I am desperate to save my baby from the junk or dismantle yard
Please help
Thanks
Don Ellington

Hello, Don,
A little problem like that won't sentence your Jag to the wrecking yard! Certainly not considering the loving care you've given it. You'll get a handle on all that very soon I'm sure.

Welcome to the forums from ElinorB.
