Ignition failure when hot for B230K engine 200 1987

posted by  someone claiming to be persistent on  Fri Apr 11 08:58 CST 2003 [RELATED]

Persistent problem with engine of 240 DL estate cutting out when hot, often after 10-15 minutes driving. B230K engine, carb system not injection. Occasionally longer if motorway! I've tried replacing coil and ECU with a matching pair from a scrapped car - problem the same. Have also tried replacing all HT leads and distributor cap and rotor arm. Any suggestions as to what might be causing the problem? Engine won't start until cooled off; distance travelled before next cut-out depends on time alowed to cool!
