      Have you been able to trace the problem back to the distributor or the coil by holing the wire
      close to ground when cranking the engine and looking for spark?
      If it restarts after cooling off it could be the ignition module inside the distributor.
      Quitting after heating up is one symptom of a deteriorating module.
      Before replacing anything I'd give the whole ignition system a good wipedown to make sure it's clean.
      Good luck.
