Quite honestly I don't know if the 90 has an Opti or a HEI distributor, but if it has the HEI I'd have the ignition control module checked. When they're on the way out they typically raise their ugly heads after the engine has warmed up.

When hot, check for spark, check for fuel pressure, check for fuel pressure holding up with the ign off. Check for pulses at an injector during cranking.

This is a common problem.
Ignition module.
