warm start problem 700

My '86 760T wagon died this afternoon!
It was having a hard time starting when warm/hot lately.
This afternoon it was about 85F outside and, after driving 1/4 mile, it started running very rough (like on one cylinder) and eventually died, stranding me. It would not re-start.

In the past week, I've replaced the spark plugs, rotor, and distributor cap. This improved running but not hot starting.

Any suggestions would be most welcome!
Thanks
