Any ideas on what to look for? car runs fine then stummbles & dies after 5 - 10 min at stop light. does not want to start until it cools down? Changed coil, rotor, wires, what about the temp sensor? Help.

Before it dies does the rpm gauge show the needle bouncing? If so,check the throttle position sensor.Another idea (but not too likely) could be something wrong with the computer,map sensor,etc

Try cleaning the throttle body. Remove the air cleaner hose, soak the butterfly and inside as far as you can reach with berryman carb cleaner or something similar and clean it well wtih rags.
