Okay so first start with a cold engine is great, fires up drive around no problems... If I drive around till the engine heats up and then shut the car off when I start it up again it will not want to run... just touching the throttle kills the engine. Oh and the engine light comes on. Now if I let it sit till everything is cool again, like overnight it is perfectely fine to go in the morning... Help please...

You can take the module out and get it tested for free at some parts stores. If it needs replacing call around for prices because they vary a lot even though it's all the same mannufacturer. Some people buy used distributors and get it cheaper that way. I tried and got a junk yard distributor with a bad module. I put some info on the modules in a webpage at http://www.ag384bn.bravehost.com/Cars.htmOriginal owner of silver grey carburetted 1989 Festiva. 105k km as of June 2006. 140k km as of June 2021.
