Default stalls when warms up

I have a 1990 that stalls when it warms up, it seems like it is out of fuel the car will crank but no start you let it cool down for a couple of hours and it will restart no problem. I have changed fuel filter and checked ECM codes and it has none, does anyone have any suggestions

get an ohm meter and check each injector coil when hot.. They should be 16ohms// report your test back here

Ignition control modules also do this when they are going bad. Check your injectors first like Jon says,if they are ok it may be the ICM, a lot of times when they heat up they quite, when they cool down they work..WW
