I don't know if this will help you out at all, but recently, my
'96 had a problem where it would quit on me sometimes, and would
refuse to start. (when the engine was hot, the problem seemed to
be worse) I replaced the coil, wires, cap, rotor, cam sensor, etc.
in order to try and fix the problem with no luck. Finally had it
towed to the dealer where the tech found that the connector that
plugs into the coil had a loose connection on the inside. Took
him 2 hours to track it down! He noticed that when he jiggled the
wiring harness near the coil, the truck would sometimes shut off.
Good luck!
