Check for spark while cranking. Does this car have a crank position sensor? Also check for voltage at the coil when the key is in the on position. Something is intermittent. I had a 1980 Turbo that would be intermittent and it turned out the pickup coil in the distributor would become an open electrical circuit when it heated up. After pushing on the coil of wire with my fingernail, I found I could get an electrical connection. I wedged a piece of matchbook cover into the location and it ran for over 2 weeks until I could get a new part....that was before being able to easy order parts on the internet. After the new pickup was installed, I dissected the old one and found a small burnt section of wire.
