Ok guys I will try to be descriptive as possible. Car ran great for a year and a half or so and made a trip to the store. Car was off for about two hours, started her up made it about a mile and it sputtered and shut off. Car would crank but not start. Fast forward to today (mind you I havnt driven the car for 3 weeks after this incident). Started the car just fine drove about 2 miles, car was reaching operating temp, sputtered and jerked a little, small backfire and it shut off. Let the car cool down for about 10 min, it started up fine, drove it home a mile and shut it off. I then started it up again and it idled for about 10 minuets and shut off. Fuel pump is priming just fine. It will start just fine when car is not hot. I tried the crank but no start checklist with no luck. Thinking its possible due to my distributer or the tfi module because it starts to cut out and shuts off when getting to certain temperature. For the record I bypassed my msd box and replaced the fuel filter and those are not contributing to the problem
