Fuel filter could cause this issue. as pressure builds in the filter it forces settled dirt into the filter causing the stall. Then after it set for a few the dirt settles back down. Try replacing it. Its a cheap fix :)

Just turns off on it's own, Wait 60 sec. restart press pedel it dies.

This engine is electronically controlled so the first thing that must be done here is to have the systems control computer tested for fault codes and then do the proper diagnostics based on those codes.

1989 Ford Bronco. When I hooked up my battery I can hear the high pressure fuel pump running even though the key is turned off. I can start the truck up and it will run for a while. I took it for a spin...

if the key is off and the fuel pump still running then the fuel shut off switch and or the fuel pump is bad and needs replaced. More than likely the fuel pump might need to be replaced. (my 86 5.0 did the samething)

Ignition coil or Ignition control module I would look towards the ignition control module.I had a 91 cavelier do the samething exact same and i tried everything to try and fix it,it turned out that it was the ignition control module. There will be 2 coils mounted onto that plate.It ran good till it warmed up,once warmed up it would stall and spitt and sputter,if left for awhile would start up and go good untill it warmed back up.Once the module would get warm it would quit working untill it cooled down

Car died wont start

You can check for spark if there is none then check for power to the coil if that checks out the replace ignition module .
