. Replace the Ignition Control Module and coil:

One or both may be breaking down under heat. These problematic components should be replaced every 120,000 miles or 10 years, whichever comes first.

. Test/replace the Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT) Sensor, located under the distributor, if the problem persists.

. Warm up engine to normal operating temperature.

. Turn ignition switch OFF.

. Disconnect 2P connector from the ECT Sensor.

. Measure resistance between the two terminals on the ECT Sensor. Is the resistance between 200 to 400 ohms? If no, replace the ECT Sensor.
