I have a 1990 chevy 1/2 ton pickup, I have replaced the pickup coil, control module, coil, and ecm. It will start cold, run about a minute, shuts off, and then no spark for an hour? I am baffled

See if your pink wire on teh coil is getting power. If it isn't then trace it back to the igninition switch. Also when you replaced the ecm unit in the distributor you shold have put dielectric compundonit onthe bottom of it. Otherwise it's probably a wiring problem that has to be physically looked at.
