When engine temp. Reaches approx. 190 degrees it dies, fuel pressure and volume are good, but there is no spark. After the engine temp. Cools down for a few hours the engine starts and runs again until it reaches 190 again. I have replaced the coil and still have the same problem. Any idea's?

No snapping blue spark continue to troubleshoot the ignition system-power input to the coil/coil packs, coil's resistances, distributor pick-up coil, ignition control module, cam and crank sensors and computer Note: If it doesn't apply disregard it.
