Vauxhall Corsa B 2000 1.2 12XE - Cuts out when hot, looses spark Archived Message

I have got a corsa in at the mo which starts fine from cold but within 8- 10minutes cuts out. It loose's spark. tryed the autodata method of testing resistance on crankshaft sensor and it is 1k (which is ok by autodata specs). If i let it cool down again it starts but again cuts out. Read fault codes and it comes up with crankshaft sensor. Could this be the case? if so what stops it working when it gets hot.
Rob.
