79 Ford 150 won't run long

Ok. Back story first. Wouldn't run. So new brain(control module), coil. Will run for about 15-20 min then just shuts off. Then went and replaced gas pump and filter. Still the same thing. Went and replaced brain again. Still will only run for about 30 min. Any suggestions

^^ what he said. Also know as pick-up coil or stator. Almost guaranteed to be the culprit.

Module located inside distributor. Research distributor pickup coil.


Example would be:
