Warmer weather= Engine dieing?

My 91 v6 is acting wierd now that the weather is warmer. When the temp is in the 60s the engine dies if I go for a ride and get the engine to idel speed and then cut it off,wait 5-10 minutes and start it again it will start but it only runs for maybe 10 secs and cuts off and the engine temp is striaght up or is leaning towards the H. If the weather is 90-100, the engine cuts off when I stop at a light. If the temp is 50 and below it runs fine. I have replaced the spark pugs,wires, cap and rotor. Any ideas would be helpful.

Just curious, have you checked the coolant level in your radiator?
