Default warms up and dies.

Hello,
I have a 1992 van with a 360 in it. It has the throttle body injection. It's a 1 ton 15 passenger van. The van starts right up and runs like brand new until it warms up. When it is warmed up, (3 to 4 miles), it will sputter just a bit and then just dies. It will not start if it is warmed up. After it has cooled down a bit, it will run like a champ again. It has a new fuel pump and filter and I am sure it is getting gas.Maybe some sort of ign. problem? I was told it may be a problem in the computer. Any advice? I really need this thing back on the road. This problem seemed to happen very suddenly. Hope to hear from you all!
Thanks!!
Neb

it might be your ignition control module when it gets warm and quits you will have no spark then when it cools you have spark again
