    Try erasing the memory on the computer but before you do check all the connections are tight.

    so the car runs ok for short time? if its stalling when it gets hot but runs fine when its cold it the crank angle sensor, and while your at it do this......clean the little contacts inside dizzy cap, they get white powdery stuff on em from the rotor button spark, scrape em with a tiny screwdriver, be careful though, they are fragile, also where the wire plugs to top of dizzy (crank angle sensor) do the same with screwdriver to contacts and spray with wd-40, crc... etc etc.....do this to all unpluggable wire connections to assure good electrical contacts...p.s. disconnect the negative battery terminal first........my nans r31 was runnin like a pig, done this to it, now runs perfect again, mechanic told her it was head gasket, ha ha ha, bloody mechanics, just saved her hundreds. another thing....make sure your battery has good terminals and contact, as bad battery contact will restrict the power, usually earth terminal is the culprit, make sure earth wire is not hangin on by couple threads too little things like this make alot of difference, i reckon anyway, some people will probably disagree, but try it, and see
