Transmission problem
1989 Chevy Celebrity 4 cyl Front Wheel Drive Automatic

my car will run fine for the first 15 minutes it is on the street. When it gets hot, as I come to a stop from over 30 MPH, it sputters and coughs then when I come to a complete stop it dies and will restart but as soon as i put it back in gear, it dies and will not resume until it has had 15- 20 minutes to cool off. once it cools off I can put it in gear and drive for a few miles until it gets too hot again.
