Wiring issue, air gap getting to big between the crank sensor and tone wheel when hot, ECU crapping out (had that same issue on an 86 of mine, got progressively worse and worse until.......).

Check the crank sensor, make sure it's as close as possible without touching the tone ring and that it is in tight.
