car dies when hot....but not from lack of spark 700 1987

1987 745 TIC

Hello.
On the way to work today in 100 degree weather the car started to miss...and eventualy died on the highway. i pulled over and it would only turn over and ALMOST catch but no dice.
After sitting for a few minuts it would run fine...it did this 3 times before i got to work.
So now that ive had some time to look at it..this what is going on...
swaped dme relay......................................................same
swaped radio supreesion relay.........................................same
pulled out and cleaned the power stage and used conductivne grease....same
ballast resistor is fine..............................................


When the car is in non-running condition the tach neddle moves so im ruling out the hall sensor.
it has spark at all times.
when non-running pulling out the AFM connector makes it worse.
when the car does not run...it cranks and ALMOST catches but as soon as i let go of the crank..it just dies.
i hear the fuel pump run..

so the car right now will run fine for about 5 min..and then stall. let sit for another 5 and it will start.

Thank you
all the best..
