I change the spark plugs and wires and put new gas filter. I bought computer reader and it tells me it is the air flow and I change that and it still quits if I make to many stops and I have to waite 45 minutes to hour then it will start right up and runs like a champ. I can't figure it out?

Get it to die out at your house and not start, then check fuel pressure and write it down, same for spark, on all cylinders. Note the color, and brightness, how defined it is, and if its rhytmic or what.

Then wait for it when it starts and runs good, then check and compare. Any of them differ?
