Default XJS V12 acceleration problem

Hello, I'm new here and I have a question about my 1979 XJS V12. the car drives perfectly, no warning lights on and as soon as I've driven 40 km and the engine is warm, the car no longer accelerates and I have to stop because the accelerator no longer works. I wait +/- 30 minutes for the engine to cool down and then it works again. new plugs and fuel filter. can someone help me?

thank you

I think that your ignition amplifier, and possibly the coils, are giving up when hot.
