Are you using a light bulb limiter with this amp?

One way to find a thermally sensitive component is to use a freeze spray type product. Use it to carefully spray individual components until you find the one that is acting up.

Alternatively you can start reading voltages on the different parts of the circuit when the amp is working and then is not working to see where voltages go wrong when it warms up. Again this requires you to take readings with the amp plugged in and turned on, so be careful.
