94 wont start

Hello from Norway
Stock 1994 Camaro Z28 1LE, 6 speed manu.

My camaro has been under repair for a year now... First my ignition module went wrong, and then my Opti spark said goodbye. I also changed plugs and wire.

My problem now is this : The car started fine and runs like new, but after a while when it is hot it stops, and it wont start again. No ses-light. This time it is different from my previous problems. When i turn on the ignition, the fuel pump starts fine, and engine is igniting, but it just "jump" and then die.(This has happend one time before this month. But then my car started after cooling off.) I try to fire it up.. but same result everytime. What can it be? There is no electrical ticking sound from ignition, so i dont think it is something with the opti. It seems that the engine isnt getting any fuel or enough power to start... ?? I have a new battery. Maybe my fuelfilter?

Try putting a fuel pressure gauge on the motor and monitor it when the problem starts to occur. Also, connect a volt meter to the battery when the car is running. You should see approx. 14 volts. or at least ABOVE 12.6 volts.

While your IC Module is new, it probably wouldn't hurt to space it off the head mounting location, as suggested by Shoebox:

When you replaced the IC Module, did you use the recommended heat transfer compound on the back surface?
