My '88 quits when warm !

[MJD]

When I get the car all warmed up doing errands, it finally will quit ...like something electrical gets hot and after I let it sit an hour or 2, she will
fire right up again, run great !
Is there any one thing I should look for as failing ...coil, a module some
where ? I am not any real mechanic, need some suggestions guys ! It is original LX with 218, 200 miles, a great little Festy !

When it will not start does it still spark out of the coil and jump
at least 3/4 inch ?

It's probably the ignition module which is inside the distributor. They are rather expensive. If you shop around, you may be able to get a whole distributor for about the price of that module.

i'm betting on oil contamination; pull the cap and rotor and dust cover and hose the inside of the dizzy down with brake clean and let it dry before putting it back together.

Also check that the choke is not sticking closed when its warm
